I think there's some connection between absolute discipline and absolute freedom.

I think every English actor is nervous of a Newcastle accent.

From my experience, I think that every actor has to make sure that they're in charge of their own career somehow or other.

I think there should be laughs in everything. Sometimes, it's a slammed door, a pie in the face or just a recognition of our frailties.

I think the thing about film is, as it gets proved by a lot of young filmmakers now, that the medium will just go on reinventing itself, and so you just hope to be a part of that and not a part of some kind of endless regurgitation or 'Here I am doing what you know I do' kind of thing.

I'm a lot less serious than people think.
