I love music, and I love singing.
I don't really know who I am as an actor: the best thing would be to experiment with it for the next 30 years and never really find out.
I actually went to university.
Half my fan mail comes from Japan.
When you're doing a film, people are always telling you exactly what to do. Literally, your own decisions are taken away from you.
I'm probably a little too uninhibited.
I'm not that kind of Bob Dylan, tortured creative.
I only remember the end of my dreams, like waking up at a steering wheel, or falling.
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.
