Having seen what I've seen in South Sudan, there's no way I can't talk about it.

I think we all see ourselves as the heroes in our own lives.

I'm an eternal realist and the success rate for being an actor is pretty low.

Never stop. Never stop fighting. Never stop dreaming. And don’t be afraid of wearing your heart on your sleeve - in declaring the films that you love, the films that you want to make, the life that you’ve had, and the lives you can help reflect in cinema. For myself, for a long time… maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn’t worth hearing, and I think everyone’s voice is worth hearing. So if you’ve got something to say, say it from the rooftops.

I've always loved King Kong. He's like a modern-day myth, an icon of the cinema.

Life is generally pretty damn amazing if you let it be.

I fundamentally believe that in the moral balance of the human race, we right ourselves. If we feel like the ship's keel is off, we find a way to steer ourselves through the storm repeatedly.
