I remember going to the cinema to watch 'Blade Runner' when I was 14 or 15. It was a huge flop when it came out. The cinema was almost empty. I was blown away by it.

You can't learn how to act; you can only really learn it through experience and practice and really finding what your voice is and what you want to be as an actor.

Drama school is really a forum for making a fool of yourself.

I have a huge acting crush on Gene Hackman. I just love watching him.

Since I've had kids, I thank God that I don't drink, as I really wouldn't have been able to cope.

I was doing a lot of great theatre, but I just couldn't work out how to make ends meet.

Whenever I'm doing stage, I want to be doing screen, and vice versa.

If you're going to reboot something, reboot it in a totally original way that speaks to a new generation.

Prior to doing a 'Bond' film, I was a young actor doing classical theater and some BBC dramas. Then, suddenly, I was thrown into this franchise. I had never experienced anything like it.

I watched a lot of American TV, all those repeats of 'Star Trek,' 'Fantasy Island,' 'M*A*S*H,' 'Lost in Space.' All that stuff was the fodder of my childhood.
