I'm glad I don't live in Primrose Hill any more. I couldn't even walk through the park. You never invite that kind of attention.
I don't think any actor has the luxury of knowing exactly what scripts are going to turn out well and what ones aren't. It would be wonderful to have that particular skill, and maybe people like Tom Cruise have it more than most, but you go into each project hoping that a good, if not great, film will come out the other end.
The whole point of being an actor is to get satisfaction out of a role - unless you're just vain about celebrity. You're always looking for the one thing that will surprise you.
If youre serious about what youre doing, youve got to keep your head and follow your instinct. Maybe you wont reach the same dizzy heights as others, but you will get something back.
I like to play different types roles, but I'd like to do a comedy next.

When you're shooting 20-odd episodes in a season, the last thing you want is for each script to be the same tone.
I always know I can die at any moment.
I consider myself really lucky and I always have done. My approach is that if I know I'm relaxed and happy, then I will do my best work.
I'd go anywhere to work, so long as it's worth it.
I'm a pretty happy person, to be honest with you.
I used a bike in London and that's it. I learnt a lot about biking, and really got into. Now I cycle regularly.
We're very confident that we'll attract the right families.
We're overwhelmed with folks here. Our shelters are full here.
