I loved doing Harry Potter. I had a great time on that. And I think it's good to have a mix. I think you're learning all the time.

As an actor, there's a bit of you that's decided you want to be looked at and watched, but there's a paradoxical bit that wants to run away.

I'm sure acting is a deeply neurotic thing to do.

If I had a gun to my head and I had to choose between theater and film I'd choose theater.

I went out to Mount Kilimanjaro, which I thought was very beautiful, but there were a lot of people there.

I'm more relaxed about how the editing process will create a performance and that, in a way, gives me a sense of freedom.

The actor shouldn't edit themselves or be anxious. And the actors that I admire are always the ones who are inventive and their imaginative life in free-willing. It's a director's job to go, "No here, don't do that, go there."
