Well, obviously I was excited by the idea that Woody Allen was going to direct it. But at the same time, the script itself and the character was really interesting.

There's something really nice about having a group of people that you're committed to, that you work with and that there's a future in it. Film is like a party, and then it's over, whereas this hopefully feels like a family.

But in this case, he had my cell phone and my phone was ringing and I had just come back from Australia on the plane and I thought it was my mum and it was Woody Allen just checking to see if I wanted to be in his movie.

As much as most of the actors were kind of curious to know what their character meant in relation to the script and to the plot, they really were quite happy to be part of the adventure of not knowing.

Yeah I think Pitch Black was edgy, I think that's what worked for our film.
