But for me, the challenge is how you turn a character into behavior. Once the director says 'action', you just try to live between those two worlds. ↗

I always considered myself as a character actor. I always try to be versatile to show different sides of human experience. ↗

I remember one time that I was filming a scene in whych my character rides through Troy on a chariot. I just looked around at this incredible set thinking 'This is the life'. ↗

I think it's sort of a rite of passage for a British actor to try and get the American accent and have a good crack at doing that. ↗

When everyone around you is doing all this incredible pirate acting and you're having to sort of play the straight guy and move the story forward, you kind of want to be doing some of that pirate ripping it up stuff, but in truth, to be a part of that project is what I love. ↗

Yeah, I mean the material, directors, the other cast, and if you think you can do something with the character then you do it and go from there. I am looking forward to doing some smaller movies. ↗

I don't know if I was a desirable person, not just physically but emotionally and mentally and intellectually. I still have a long way go and a lot to learn, but I'm on my way, I don't think I'm terribly attractive, but I'm comfortable with my looks. ↗
