I did do some Shakespeare on film, it's really difficult. It's really interesting, because I was doing a series in Canada called 'Slings and Arrows' and it was about a company based around the Stratford Festival.

I sort of always had an inkling towards some kind of an art form. I grew up in a very small town, and I just figure-skated. My dad played hockey and I was surrounded by sports, but it wasn't quite doing it for me. I wasn't totally fulfilled, and I did a lot of skating.

I was a little jealous of the levitation cloak but I was happy to be comfortable [on Doctor Strange set].

I've been given lots of great advice, in my life. As an actor, just being as honest and as present as you can be.

I think I kind of grew up with that a little bit and have great admiration for people who do [medical practice] for a living and who are real empaths. So I suppose I drew on - , from my mom a bit.

[On Doctor Strange] just from costumes to everything was just so well done, so beautifully thought through and well-crafted. And so - , and they didn't even make me pretend that much with green screen.

I think people are wise to keep love and work separate.
