Good Scripts Are Hard To Find.

I Genuinely Was Just Such A Fan Of The Books. When I Heard That This Was On The Cards, I've Got To Do This; I've Got To Get Involved With This. I'm Such A Philip Pullman Fan And Actually His Philosophies, Morals And The Way He Looks At The World. He Does What He Does Brilliantly As A Writer. He Writes Children's Stories With Major Adult Themes And Major Ideas About Making The Right Choices.

The Character I Play Has All These Revolutionary Ideas. I Think The Classic Thing Is That Majority People Who Are Criticising It Probably Have Never Read The Books, And Need To. And I'm Sure That The Catholic Church, Which Is Being Directed As You Know, Can Handle It.

I Don't Want To Be A Celebrity Because That Sucks. It's Just Madness.

I Never Had Any Boyhood Ambitions.

Doing A Film And Saying, I've Done A Really Dark Film And Now I Have To Do A Comedy... That's Not Me. If A Script Comes Along And It's Dark I'll Absolutely Do It And Take The Consequences. I'm Not Fussed About The Image That Goes Along With It.
