I'm One Of Those Actors Who Says, "point Me Toward The Work That Matters To Me And I Don't Care Where You're Putting It. Television Show. Movie. Projected On The Back Of Someone's Garage." If That's Where The Work Is That's Exciting To Me And Moving, I Want To Be There.

Considering That I'm British And I Talk The Way I Do, I Love It When A Director Takes A Chance On Me.

Female Directors, Directors Of Color Are A Big Thing For Me, Which Are Both Important Voices And Potent Voices That Need To Be Heard. That's How I Want To Engage Myself As An Actor Going Forward.

I Am A Father, I Am Very Aware Of The Things That I'm Putting Out In The World Knowing That One Day My Children Will Watch The Work That I've Done. I Want To Be Able To Stand By It.

I Know For A Fact The Reason I'm An Actor Is Because One, Two, Maybe Three People When I Was Younger Saw Something That I Did, In Youth Theater Or Some Small Play Somewhere, And Said, "you're Good."

I'm Very Aware Of How Much Movies, Literature And Art Affect Culture. They Are A Reflection Of The World Around Us And They Are Also A Means By Which We Engage With The World Around Us.
