I wouldn't want to be a James Bond.

I'm happy to say I'm a feminist. Being a feminist is just believing in equal rights. Man, woman, gay, straight, black, white - we're all in it together.

I got into beards right in the middle of the hipster boom.

I'll never be Jennifer Lawrence or Tom Cruise, someone who can hold a movie and then be charming and charismatic doing promotion. I haven't got what they've got. But at least I'm now comfortable just being myself.

I get on fine with my mum and dad, but if they want to see the grandchildren, they come to me.

I love gardening, and I love cooking. I love things like that. I love creating things.

I did swimming, gymnastics, dance, and the acting was just a small part. I didn't have pushy parents; it wasn't forced upon me. They just said, 'See if you like it. If you do, great; if you don't, don't worry about it.' I was really fortunate to have that guidance and supportive parents.

I was always told at school that you had to have a back-up plan, but all I ever wanted to do was act. There was no plan B for me.

I can't think of anything worse than trying to schmooze someone with the idea that you're an actor.

I haven't got any friends from where I grew up, but that's not to do with fame.

Life is more important than 'what film I do next.'

My world was completely different to other boys my age. When I was six I was earning money, and by 10 I was paying more tax than the parents of other pupils. I feel a lot older than my years. Because I was working with adults, I had to mature a lot quicker.

The thing about travelling is that you work hard and play hard, but you can do all those things without your parents knowing.

'Pulp Fiction' was probably one of the first films I ever saw that really kind of took effect on me. I was about four years old - obviously wasn't supposed to be seeing that film; my sister kind of sneaked it out and we got to see it. She's older than me. That was something I always used to watch.

I'm a dad, and I can tell you it's the most beautiful thing in the world.

I don't go online, I don't read reviews, I try not to look at anything on the Internet.

Anyone who's got a guitar, you like to pick it up. I can play a couple of songs, some '50s rock and roll, a bit of Elvis. That's it, really - I'm not a musician, I'm not a singer.

The buzz you get when you're playing a song and everyone is screaming and dancing and what have you and singing along is incredible.

I don't like to be me. I'm not so comfortable being me on screen because then I'd be a presenter. I'm not Jimmy Fallon.

I think with anything where you delve into the back story of an artist, it kind of explains their work more intimately.
