But things such as 'Harry Potter', all I can do is shape my character, seek the director's approval on that, and basically take it from there. Professor Flitwick in 'Harry Potter', I kind of defined how I saw him from reading the book, and luckily that matched up with the director's vision.

People who are short, they're often portrayed as the victim.

It's interesting to see what people are saying about me. I like keep up with the latest rumors! A while back there was a rumor that I was going to do a film with Demi Moore about the takeover of Commodore computers!

As a film actor, you don't often get that opportunity to meet with your audience and take your applause on stage.

I'm an actor, and when I close the door at home I'm kind of off-duty.

There's nothing better than going to the movies and going into another world, and forgetting about everything that's happening outside.
