I want to surprise people and do different things and maybe do something that's not quite financially rewarding.
I've got Colin Firth's number in my phone!
I want to have fun. I'm not interested in being a serious actor, because I think it's boring, and I think we've got plenty of them.
I'm not interested in going and doing a big, action-adventure romp with nothing to say about being a human being.
I didn't go to drama school to be a musical theatre performer. I enjoyed it, but I didn't go to do that; I went to be an actor.
There are some parts of my life that are wonderful, and it's amazing to get to go to cool events and award shows and things like that, but I think the outside perception is that your life just changes overnight and you wear Dolce and Gabanna suits and drive a Mercedes. But life's just not like that.
I've made these films, and I'm really proud, but my lifestyle hasn't changed.
I'm very conscious of... I don't feel like a star.
I learned how to ski for 'Eddie the Eagle.' I never skied before. So I had to go out to Germany a couple of weeks early and make sure I could ski.
I have been in auditions where - because - you're always scared before, but if you let that scared feeling get the better of you or become too much, it could ruin your audition.
Doing the press has become as much of a job as getting in front of the camera. You have to avoid burnout, avoid saying anything stupid, but still come across as yourself.
The endless teen franchises that come out of Hollywood... more often than not, the central character doesn't have any discernible character traits. They're just the young, good-looking guy who goes on this journey. They're always played by fantastic young actors, but ultimately, they're not very interesting characters.
I don't want to start getting my little violin out, but travelling across the world constantly and staying in hotels is tough, man.
I had dreams of winning Olivier Awards.
I want to play real characters rather than young leads in very plotty things. I want variety.
I'm not interested in being Franchise Boy.
For my money, when you're doing an on-camera performance, unless it's for something particularly stylised, you are, by and large, striving for naturalism.
If you watch a television show made by accomplished professionals of children's TV, it's all very expressive.
I'd like to do a play, and I'd like to do a musical.
I did a musical when I was 17, an amateur show, and I loved it.
