I've played almost every lead character from Henry VI to Othello. I'm dying to tackle Richard III sometime.

I believe in Christianity, Judaism and Islamism, but I stay away from churches, synagogues and mosques.

I've always tried to explore the humorous aspects of life.

Artists should always think of themselves as cosmic instruments for storytelling.

It's not like I played a villain and everyone goes 'ugh, there's that guy again'.

One of the things we're taught as actors is restraint - don't jump off the cliff.

I suddenly discovered that acting made girls notice me.
