For me, faith is more about aspiration than complacency - the smug satisfaction that other people find distasteful.

I'm no Kenneth Branagh or Ben Stiller. I'm not that single-minded: 'I'm producing it, directing it, and starring in it' kind of person; that's not me.

I did absolutely love playing Tabaqui, the hyena, who is morally conflicted and a villain, but also quite sweet.

I meet people who are famous, and it's made me realise that fame has huge lifestyle disadvantages. I'm nervous about that. I don't want to become a celebrity.

I actually don't subscribe to the notion that comedy is easier than drama. When you're trying to be funny and you're not funny, that's really terrible. It's a horrible feeling.

I like to think of myself as versatile, and I certainly have the most varied career, so I'm very, very lucky in that.

I'm unhappy as Dylan Thomas was, because I'm not, but I've had my brushes with sadness.
