I did half a year of theatre.
Overnight, I became a public figure.
I love people who go out and say, 'If cinema is God, then I'm the pope.' As an actor working with these kinds of people, the older you get, the more you appreciate it.
One of the things I've learned from 'Borgen' is that it's very easy to criticise people; 'I hate this politician, I hate what they do.' You are doing this right now with Margaret Thatcher, but sometimes it's hard to be a politician. I'm not defending Margaret Thatcher, but we believe our statesmen are also human beings.
I was the first person in the family to be an actor.
I did a film called 'Worlds Apart' about a Jehovah's Witness. I was the love interest - the male lead - but the story was about the female lead, a young girl who is a part of this cult, and she wants to break out. She meets a guy who has to help her. She has to find out who she is. It's more like a coming of age story.
I love 'Sex and the City,' but it's also wonderful that there's something else other than 'Sex and the City.'
