Most actors are drawn towards historical tellings because it's one of the most simple forms of storytelling.
I have done lots of music projects in my life and some of them I am more proud of than others.
I didn't have any pets growing up.
I want to play characters that are interesting to watch.
Sexuality is a topic that has huge shifts in -society. Attitudes toward different sexualities change, but the actual sexuality of a human being is something that's consistent, and it's consistently interesting, and so people write about it.
I would like to work with whoever would like to have me.
I want to take advantage of any popularity I have.
We live in a youth-obsessed, aesthetically obsessed culture. That is no more evident than in the film industry.
I can't run. I start getting twinges. If I were filmed running, it would be awful.
Never agree to say or do anything that isn't you.
I'd rather be shot than be seen falling out of some trendy club.
Jeff Bridges is one of my favorite actors in the history of ever.
I've actually, very rarely have I worked in my own voice. I've played, I think, Russian, American, Northern from the North of England. All sorts of different accents I've worked in.
I went to a very academically competitive high school. So I was always quite studious and quiet, just to keep up with the other geniuses who were in my school.
