At some point, life starts to pass you by and becomes about avoidance. I want to stay clear from that situation, because I don't like that.
The movie business is based on criminals. Some of them are in movies and some of them make movies.
Any voices or fantasies, he lives with. Those are his everyday life things.
I didn't want to do a zoo show. I didn't want to do a study of someone with mental illness. I just wanted to show someone who was trying to live their life.
As a kid, I kind of spent my life being amazed by being tricked. I love being tricked. I still love it today.
Every movie I get involved with I get involved in as big a level as I possibly can, but this has been a very much more personal journey for me, so bringing it here tonight there's a sense of relief, there's a sense of just amazement that got here... because it's been a struggle. But this is a good way to launch it and there couldn't be a better way of celebrating this movie than bringing it to the West End.
Being on your own would be sad, sick and weird. I don't trust myself. I need that balance.
I have never played a role in which someone's dark side shouldn't be explored.
Although I'm not from London originally: I moved down here when I was 16, so it's played a part in my life. It's where I've lived for all that time.
I can't go to war with paparazzi.
Suits are looked at more now as a business thing which is kind of a shame. If you're not wearing it just for work, you should try and trick it up a bit.
When you read a novel, your own imagery is the most important. It's what makes reading such a wonderful thing.
I’m potentially worth a lot of money, but I’ve got to go and make something that’s worth a lot of money.
It's a huge challenge, a huge responsibility. Bond is a huge iconic figure in movie history. These opportunities don't come along very often so I thought, 'Why not?'
