drama school kids
I wanted to become an actor. I went to Guildhall School of Music and Drama, which is one of the main drama schools in London where you go when you are older. But I was doing the junior one when I was a kid. And some friends there had agents. I was fourteen and I was like, "I want an agent! It sounds awesome!" I had no idea what that was. I thought those guys looked like men in black. They were hanging around in suits all the time. So I luckily got a very good agent in London and started auditioning. And then when I was 16, I got my first film and I've been working ever since.
night long all-night
I love to dance and dance all night long.
actors young
I dreamt of being an actor ever since I was young.
scripts directors guarantees
You can have a great script, or a great director and a bad script, and get a great movie. Nothing really guarantees anything.
letting-go friday night
On a Friday night, I like to go out because my friends, who have been working normal hours, just want to let go after a stressful week at work.
dream want needs
I'd love to work with Paul Thomas Anderson or Quentin Tarantino, but these are dreams I don't need to rush to achieve. I'll be ready to make those movies when I'm ready to make those movies and they're ready to make them with me, if they ever want to.
trying ponds toes
What is life unless you're having a good time? I don't really have a plan; I just try to dip my toes in different ponds.
people interesting trying
I'm just trying to choose interesting, quirky projects or things with interesting directors or just movies that have a lot of people I like attached to them so I know I'm going to have a good time.
thinking imagination perfection
I don't think I've reached perfection by any stretch of the imagination, but maybe someday I'll become a perfectionist.
london directors reason
When I do go to L.A., it is usually for a reason - to meet with a director or something - but I'm always so happy to go back to London.
would-be actors places-to-go
As an actor, Hollywood would be a horrible place to go if you weren't actually invited.
cooking together
I live alone so I always just eat out. When I'm in another relationship, then maybe we'll start cooking together.
responsibility thinking phoenix
I love Leonardo DiCaprio. He just makes really great films with great directors. He has great relationships with directors but also has a great social awareness. I think he balances his work with his responsibilities to his world, the environment, things like that very well. I'm very impressed by him and I admire him a lot. And other actors like Joaquin Phoenix, I just look at him and marvel at his unexpectedness, just his work really.
needs vegetarian curry
I like to cook Vietnamese pho or vegetarian curries. I need to cook more but I need somebody to cook with.
