There Is Nothing Nicer Than Playing Someone

I Went Off And Read The Books After The Audition And I Read All Four Books In One Sitting - You Know - Didn't Wash, Didn't Eat, Drove Around With Them On The Steering Wheel Like A Lunatic. I Suddenly Understood Why My Friends, Who I'd Thought Where Slightly Backward, Had Been So Addicted To These Children's Books. They're Like Crack.

There Is Nothing Nicer Than Playing Someone Who Is Cooler, Tougher, More Virtuous And Sexier Than Yourself And Thinking, 'i Can Be Anyone.

The Weird Job Of Acting Is That It Is So Simple. You Just See The Person In The Situation. It Is Whatever You Have To Do To Get There. Some People Want To Stay Up All Night Or Cut Their Toe Off. For Me It Is A Bunch Of Reading, And Hanging Out With Real People, I Do That. You Never Know What You Are Going To Get. It Might Be The Shoes People Wear.

In The Moment Of Acting You Don't Feel Like Anything, You Feel Like The Person, As Much As You Can.

When I Came Back From Filming 'abduction', I Told My Agent: I'm Staying In London Now. If It Takes Doing Children's Theater From The Back Of A Van In Kilburn, That's Ok. I Need To Be With My Family. My Job Is To Keep The Family Together And Provide For Them.
