I don't think you could get anything worse than losing a child. I think if my child died, I would prefer it if I were dead.

What we do every St. Patty's day, which is wear green and drink a lot of Guinness. And maybe cry a little bit and laugh, and everyone will have to sing a song. That's how every funeral, christening, and wedding ends up in Ireland. Everyone ends up having to sing a song by the end of it.

I love New Zealand. It's my favorite place to shoot. It's one of my favorite countries to visit. The people, the food, the landscape, everything about it I love.

My whole life I try to make into a comedy, so it would be nice to see that onscreen.

I've basically grown up with Harry Potter, as so many kids my age have. It's kind of a part of my life.

I've grown up with my parents' music tastes, listening to Fleetwood Mac and the Rolling Stones.

I'm very much for strengthening our industry at home. It's great now there's a lot of work happening but I think with Irish film in particular, the views were starting to get a little stereotypical and we were pigeonholing ourselves a little bit. We needed to get out of that.
