I'm a workaholic, I always try to fill my time with projects.

As a producer you have creative control, and that's what is so exciting about it. At the end of the day, if you have made a film it's totally your responsibility, and if it works it's your responsibility and if it doesn't it's also your responsibility.

I was thrown in the deep end at 18 when I got cast in a movie that I didn't audition for. The director just sort of found me and put me in a film, so the decision was really made for me.

I love zombie films like Danny Boyle's '28 Days Later' - I thought it was so brilliantly done and so grounded in reality. I was definitely thrust into the zombie world watching that film.

I can't speak for anyone else, but in my case, I sort of fell into acting.

There aren't a lot of movie star males around my age that I can play opposite.

I haven't met everyone from all different cultures, but I do know Aussies are very tough.
