What's exciting about theatre is observing human behaviour. You're constantly making judgments about body language, the physical, the emotional, the intellectual.

Cate Blanchett and Eileen Atkins are definitely among my top five actresses whose work I aspire to.

Because I didn't go to drama school, I didn't start in the business with any toolbox apart from enthusiasm and instinct. I'd throw everything at a part and sometimes realise that I had hit my limits.

I used to get a haircut every Saturday so I would never miss any of the comic books. I had practically no hair when I was a kid!

Technology is characterized by constant change, rapid innovation, creative destruction, and revolutionary products.

I don't think I was a good model. I think I was born to emote and act. I would walk down the ramp and smile and they used to say, 'Give us a blank look.' It was really difficult not to smile.
