I've always loved the idea of changing myself, wearing costumes and disguises. It takes you back to being a kid, to dressing up.

It was like a dream to me to suddenly get into the market with that kind of movie, like La Haine. It actually created my identity as an actor, that thing.

Blood, especially fake, and guns, this is bullshit. It works in the movie, but on set it doesn't work for me.

I think I'm actually more vulnerable than people imagine.

I don't really shop any more. I only do it when I have to. I think it is very overrated.

Cronenberg's a lot of fun, and that a lot of people don't know watching his movies. He doesn't take himself seriously. He's still reinventing himself.

People pretend to be nice, people pretend to be smooth, and polite and everything, but this is only an appearance, because the way we're built as human beings is only in paradox and contradictions.
