Guy Pearce

Growing up, I was a kid pretending to be an adult.

When I go to a movie, I'm always thrilled if I've seen an actor do something and I didn't realize until the end of the movie that that was that person. I love that.

The thrill of coming home has never changed.

I don't like to get in front of people.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.
