I love sci-fi because it leads in the imagination, and I always say it has the most intelligent fans in the world.

The darker the character, the more interesting.

I loved cinema while growing up and, for the longest time, wanted to be a director.

The thing I miss the most about Scotland is the football.

I'm in four different films this year, and I have four different accents. I sound different in every film. You have to love a character to play it well, and change in my work is what I want.

Biologically, I'm lucky - an angular face and dark colouring which shows up well on camera.

The script will point you in certain directions and I go the opposite if I can. I try do do one thing and tell a different story with my eyes. I believe what's more interesting is always what's not being said.
