I'd love to see T'he Avengers' with Robert Downey, Jr. playing Loki and Clark Gregg playing 'Thor' and I play Captain America.

I am an optimist... I choose to be. There is a lot of darkness in our world, there is a lot of pain and you can choose to see that or you can choose to see the joy. If you try to respond positively to the world, you will spend your time better.

Real love is strange and changeable… but also somehow constant.

Nurture your own confidence and make it real; don't pretend to be someone you're not.

I love the acting community at Cambridge. It's really quite committed and serious, since the days of Derek Jacobi and Ian McKellen right through to Emma Thompson and Hugh Laurie.

Haters never win. I just think that's true about life, because negative energy always costs in the end.

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