The zeitgeist is ever-changing. If you try second guess what people want, you'll miss it.
One of my biggest disappointments is watching the trailer for the second Lord of the Rings film and having Gandalf in it. Why? He died in the first one, why give it away in the trailer just to try and sell 1000 more seats? It's daft.
My scripts are always heavily noted. If I can take a director to one side and say, "Do you mind if we try this?," a few days before, that's usually a better way of doing it then on the day.
People say, 'Oh, you're famous now, so you must go to L.A.' - I don't live in L.A. now - but it's like, why wouldn't you? The weather is amazing, the film industry's there, it's a great quality of life.
Football and me have never got on. My instinct and love for the harder end of contact had always meant I was perhaps a little too heavy-handed for football. Somehow it left me feeling unfulfilled.
God's greatest tragedy is the creation of mankind.
I'd be happy doing anything on a film set.
If you think about America, it is about getting your backpack on and heading out.
In the early 2000s, I was introduced to the noble art of kickboxing, it thrilled me, and I loved it. I loved the honour and the discipline, and I also loved the punching.
I find acting tough, but sitting around chatting - that's easy.
I would agree 'Paul' is a sci-fi genre movie. And a road movie.
I'd like to play the voice of the Iron in the Monopoly movie.
I like to think I'm some savage realist.
I wanted to write rather than do anything else. But 'cause I left school at 15, I didn't know what a noun was, still don't.
