The more people know about an actor the less convincing they become. A bit of mystery's a good thing.

I've always taken my love of children from my father. He was a children magnet. Suddenly, having my first child hit home what my dad went through.

I do tend to divide my childhood into darkness and light, and the first seven years were certainly the darkness.

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.

I feel like I'm the luckiest man on the planet.

Every actor I think has got their own number of takes that they like, you know. Some actors like to go all day, you know on the one scene and some actors want to take two takes. I personally like four.

I've really enjoyed my work in television, but the problem for me is the turnover of directors every week.
