I'm usually up at 6 A.M., even on the weekend.
As a kid, I wasn't listening to The Who; I was listening to Frankie Knuckles.
It's a very special thing when you go and get to work with your best friend every day.
I would be happy living on a massive ranch in Montana and not seeing anyone except my friends and family.
There's a difference between watching a film and watching a bit of cinema and enjoying a film as a piece of cinema.
The older I get, the less I remember.
A lot of people who do drama say comedy is the hardest thing, but, not wanting to sound like a bighead, comedy is easy for me, as I've always been fairly funny.
I fall in love with every film while I'm doing it. I fall in love with the directors, I fall in love with the process. I don't think I could do it otherwise.
I like to go home early, that's my thing. My idea of a pub crawl lasts from midday until 5 P.M., then I can go home, play with my kid, have tea and go to bed.
People presume just because you're a bigger bloke that you wouldn't be physically fit or up for the fight, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
It's nice to have someone write a couture character for you.
One of my biggest disappointments is watching the trailer for the second Lord of the Rings film and having Gandalf in it. Why? He died in the first one, why give it away in the trailer just to try and sell 1000 more seats? It's daft.
I don't describe myself as a sociable person now. I can be quite... you know... grumpy? Is that a word? I guess I can be a bit grumpy.
Football and me have never got on. My instinct and love for the harder end of contact had always meant I was perhaps a little too heavy-handed for football. Somehow it left me feeling unfulfilled.
