Actors are easy to like. They are generally sociable, thoughtful people.

[Hunt for the Wilderpeople] people seem to be just finding it hilarious in Sundance. I would think that judging on the feedback I get; it's a very warming film. It's not sentimental, but people are sort of heart warmed by a message that's pretty rare.

In the case of Wilderpeople, I walked on the first day with some apprehension actually; because it doesn't come anywhere close to anything I've really played before, this part.

I never met Barry Crump, but I was in an audience once for a play once. There was a drunken man at the back of the auditorium that was shouting during a performance of a one man play, and it turned out later on that was Barry Crump and he was in a state of inebriation.

I like being around actors. Imagine not liking actors.

Try and fit in in a New Zealand playground with an Armagh accent - it doesn't work.

I like actors. I like their insecurities, their humor and their intelligence.
