You couldn't take football away from me, you couldn't take acting away from me.

When you do bigger films, the financiers take more risks.

I don't like acting things; I like feeling things.

Sometimes you just can't walk away from films you're offered, like the Dylan Thomas thing.

Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.

I got involved in script development from the beginning. It was nice to see how a film gets made right from the beginning. It was quite hands-on for me.
