I have very, very specific ideas about how I want to do my work and how I want to be perceived and to the point of ridiculousness sometimes.

Peter [Facinelli] would be so good at doing that. I want him to do the Beyoncé biopic.

I think the most stressful thing in movies is when the weather is really random.

I never ever would have thought initially it would have been someone like Pierce playing Charles. I think he has an innate likeability to him, as soon as you meet him he's very, very charismatic. Charles, on the page, was someone who's very domineering and quite a negative character, and Pierce just by being Pierce can change the whole dynamic of it, which made for a much for interesting relationship. He's a really nice guy.

I haven't found one place in the world yet where I could disappear.

I think 26 is the turning point. I’ve got to make up for 10 years of living like a degenerate. I’ve suddenly become conscious of being unhealthy. You’ve spent every bit of free time since [the age of ] 15 in a pub. And suddenly you’re like, ‘Oh God, I don’t want to be this grey ghost sitting there with a pot belly. I’ve got to get it together.

It’s funny now, trying to socialise with people. There’s this cautiousness about people which I just find really weird.
