I learned how to ski for 'Eddie the Eagle.' I never skied before. So I had to go out to Germany a couple of weeks early and make sure I could ski.

The whole spirit of 'Eddie The Eagle' is that it's the taking part that counts, not the winning.

I'm into books - I love literature, so I toyed with the idea of being an English teacher. I had a fantastic English teacher at school. I think great English teachers make the world go round.

If I could play any superhero... my favorite superhero is Spider-Man. Andrew Garfield is wonderful at doing it to the point that I don't think I should play it.

I've never considered myself to be a fashionista type of guy.

I'm trying to play parts which are a little more out there, but I want variety.
