There was an extended period of rehearsal, ... which meant everything became quite naturalized.
The response to Pride has been so overwhelming. I mean, people have really loved it. And it's so rewarding because we had such a fun time making that film, and it was made with so much heart, that it's lovely that people seem to be responding in kind to that.
It's something that I am going over in my head about the whole video game thing, and whether you support violence by being in a film like this. I mean, to me, it's incredibly unreal and it's all about the action, and just explosions.
There are certainly contemporaries that I admire, like Emily Blunt. I think she is amazing.
It is interesting to break all the rules. I'm not married, I have a baby, and it feels infinitely more right.
I would love to play the lead in a big romantic comedy. That's definitely a dream of mine.
I saw a lot of operas from backstage and watched a lot of rehearsals - my parents were singers.
I work in the entertainment industry, and I like to be entertained.
You can get things out of acting with someone a second time around that you don't necessarily get the first time because you're more familiar, more comfortable.
I remember times of anxiety, ups and downs, and times of unexpected windfalls. But my parents loved what they did. And because their work was also their hobby, it taught me that work could be fulfilling.
One goes on with the blithe belief that who you really are is transparent to everybody. Then you realise, with some horror, that in fact it's not. So all you can do is keep muddying the waters a bit.
When the eyes are on you for the first time, you can't believe that people aren't criticising you.
What I find sexy is when someone's having fun and able to look right back at you.
Success is freedom - scripts coming your way and getting to choose the stories you want to tell.
