country family farm modern provide rather technology time
I'm a farm boy. I would rather live in that time when you had to provide for your family. I don't know. I'm a country kid, so I don't like modern technology.
cowboy man type work
Patrick Swayze is a fantastic man and an inspiration to work with. He is a fearless cowboy type and a movie icon.
certain hard
It's hard to prove yourself when the substance isn't there in certain roles.
I haven't changed a bit. I go out with my mates, but I probably have to watch what I do a little more.
good shows tend
Good shows tend to be more fun to do. If you feel like you are doing something good and making a good show, it is a lot more enjoyable.
hard work
As an actor, sometimes you've gotta take the jobs that you may not want to do. It's so hard to work as an actor.
money pay trying
Acting wasn't some long-held dream, and it still isn't, really. I'm just trying to make some money and pay the bills.
attracted darker
I'm way more attracted to character stuff and darker roles. It's just my personality, I guess.
I'm the most unlikely person when it comes to fashion. I don't really have much sense of it.
front letting people sort vulnerable
Half of acting is you're very intimidated, overcoming your fears, letting yourself be vulnerable in front of people and that sort of stuff.
camping home rather sit stay
If I went on vacation, I'd rather go camping than stay in some four-star hotel... My friends treat me the same at home. They just want to sit down with you and have a beer.
bar becoming couple ended england enjoyment intention met schooling sitting travel university worked
I went to university for a year, and I'm not one for schooling and have no enjoyment sitting in a classroom all day and ended up going to live in England for two years, just to travel. I worked in a bar in a hotel for a couple of years and had no intention of becoming an actor. That's where I met my agent.
bum time
I dress like a bum all the time. I'm a pretty casual fella.
I actually don't think Ireland has a summer. I never experienced a summer there. It was just so wet.
