I was not, and am not, officially a producer of that film [I am love] but the work of what a producer does I learned at that stage and to a certain extent I've been a producer ever since.

There's nothing I'm particularly keen to hide about my humanity.

Well you know, the comic strip [Doctor Strange]... yeah, was an Asian man, in fact, a very ancient Tibetan man living on the top of a mountain. The film script that I was given wasn't an Asian man, so I wasn't asked to play an Asian man - I was asked to play an ancient Celtic person.

I am the only living person in the English speaking world who didn't have the Narnia books as a child.

The last time I did anything like this [special powers] was with the Narnia film with two swords, the same but different.

There's no need there to sit with the filmmaker for 11 years to develop the script, or go round the world raising money.

If I'd been asked to play an Asian man [in Doctor Strange] I would've shown them Benedict Wong.
