Joel Edgerton

The nature of human beings is that we're competitive, and the chances are there's someone out there who's going to work harder than you and want it more than you.

Particularly when you're making a movie of a book, people are always waiting with their knives - you know?

Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it's just teaching you to stand up the next time.

I don't write constantly; it's two serials and a novel a year.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I think for any actor, for the roles they deeply, truly want? They always have to audition for them.
