job maybe
I need to kind of get a job that's going to take me to, like, Hawaii or Rio or something, right? Maybe I need to make better decisions with that.
awareness job trying
I only have an awareness of what I'm trying to achieve as an actor and what my job as the character is to service.
jobs nice always-trying
It's nice to have recognition for doing a good job, but at the end of the day, I'm just an actor and I'm doing my job and I'm always trying to get better at doing that job.
jobs actors
I'm an actor and my job is to interpret.
jobs character challenges
Doing jobs that are completely different to the last thing I did pushes me as an actor to change as much as I can. It would be easy for me to stay in a similar vein of characters or jobs, but I'm drawn to challenging myself.
geek love since watched
I've watched 'Doctor Who' since I was a kid. I loved it, and I still love it. I can geek out about it, like when I go to set and see the TARDIS.
ball dire rather stick wolf
I think I'd much rather have a wooden stick and metallic ball than a real dire wolf on set.
I think I need to film something tropical on a beach in a bar.
sam scene since watched work
I think meeting someone like, meeting Sam Shepard, that was someone who was kind of important for me, because I'd read so much of his work and watched him as an actor since I was a kid, then being on set doing a scene with him and thinking, 'This is really surreal.'
No one in safe in 'Game of Thrones.'
characters open
We don't really get to see gay characters who are completely open with their sexuality, but it doesn't define who they are.
characters delicate people portray worship
You have to be delicate with how you can portray characters other people are having a worship over.
amongst deal kid known peers school taught tv
When I was younger, I did a TV show in the U.K. for a couple years, and I learned a lot from that. It taught me a lot about being known amongst your peers and having to deal with a lot of derision from them. It's not easy being known as 'the kid from the TV show.' Not in school it's not.
I try to be outdoors as much as I can.
