I never wanted to be a movie star.

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.

So I was in America and I thought I'll stick around while I'm here and just see what happens. The next film I did was High Art, so I guess it started with a sort of vague idea but really just a fantasy.

So wearing a corset certainly changes your state of mind.

For me, even just being English was a whole sort of experience in as much as I'm Australian.

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