If I was to say "I'll only do movies," then I'd struggle to find a varied career. My priority is an interesting career, that's why I keep a low rent, I don't go on big holidays, and I keep it very simple.

Ive gone through long periods without being with someone and got a bit lonely, but not for a while.

Im hoping that a lifetime of compromise and disappointment will read as extra depth and layers in my work.

I'm in a position where I'm being continually knocked back for the kind of independent films I want to be in because people don't know who I am.

Quality is subjective. There are quality blockbusters; there are quality versions of every genre and it doesn't necessarily mean money.

My idea of quality is my own idea of quality. What I do and what I want to do next is my business. The next thing I fall in love with might be what you think is rubbish.

When I left drama school, my fear was that I'd get pigeon holed into comic acting and I did so much to counter it that I got stuck in the opposite.
