I love people. People are lovely creatures. I'm one myself, so I love to see people happy.

There's always a certain pride in getting the job done properly.

I'm here to challenge myself and to see whether I can shape-shift in an environment that's actually quite daunting, but which I think would be nice to shine a light into. The destination of any interesting drama is that you shine a light into a place that not many people know about.

If I am duly compared to Marlon Brando at all, well, I can only think of The Teahouse of the 'Shanghai Noon,' that they're comparing me to that!

Love is doing something you don't want to do for someone you don't particularly like at that moment.

I hate publicists and publicity. But I love the people.

Whatever character you play, remember they are always doing something they are not just talking.
