When I did A Doll's House I felt like I learnt so much, ... That's another reason to do this, I wanted to push myself and see what else I could learn from doing it. Because Robyn's an actress as well, I feel like I learn a lot of technique and things from her.
There's such big pressure on people who are incredibly famous, on those who have people sitting outside their front door and taking photos every time they move.
It's a career that's enticing because you go on stage, for example, and people clap. You get that affirmation, but you can't go into acting for that because it's really your own self-belief that's going to get you through.
I have plenty to look forward to, I'm sure.
I've made my peace with being in the spotlight, definitely.
You are being hit with tabloid-journalism bi-lines of what you are doing because you have suddenly become a star.
I think you go through a period as a teenager of being quite cool and unaffected by things.
Every director is completely different.
Yeah, Dad can go and write a script, but if I did something else, I'd produce.
