I Remember Once Imagining What My Life Would Be Like, What I'd Be Like. I Pictured Having All These Qualities, Strong Positive Qualities That People Could Pick Up On From Across The Room. But As Time Passed, Few Became Qualities That I Actually Had.

Having Been A Father For 19 Years I Realise Fatherhood Has Changed Me.

In The Beginning My Energy And Passion For Acting Came From An Almost Punk Rock Need To Express A Lot Of Anger Wherever That May Have Come From. As I Got Older, It Became Or Is Coming More From A Place Of Wanting To Use The Craft To Help Others In Some Way, To Hold A Mirror Up To The Situations That We're Going Through, To Actually Be More Cautious About The Way That I Use The Power Of Film And To See If There's Anything That I Can Do In The Performances That Will Resonate In The Public A Similar String That's On People's Minds And Is On My Mind. That Way We Have That Relationship.

Celebrity Is A Word I Take Great Umbrage With. I'm Actively Anti-celebrity.
