Vancouver's a very child friendly city, there's... no doubt about that.

A lot of my work is with children and there's a reason for that, because they really level you.

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

A lot of Scots have settled in Canada over the years and it's a very easy place for Scots - they understand us, we understand them.

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 don't want to be a luvvie actor. It took a long time for me to accept I was an actor, a professional actor, and that, actually, I make a living out of this.

Acting is a really insular thing.
