Tags: Recognize, Television, WeekThat's the thing, when you play younger characters they're always less casual. You're hungrier or more naive. Those things wane in time.
Tags: Less, Naive, TimeThere are plenty of people in the world who have tried to be rock stars and have not gotten there.
Tags: Rock, Stars, TriedWhen I finished school, everyone wanted to go to a good university and become a lawyer or a doctor. My A-levels were sort of chosen for me.
Tags: Become, Good, SchoolWhen I was at school, I was in choirs more than anything else, from a very young age, about 9 years old. And then I started taking drum lessons.
Tags: Age, School, YoungWhen I was younger I didn't really know what genre of music I'd want to do because I'd always done so many different types, so many impressions.
Tags: Done, Music, YoungerWhen you're doing a film, people are always telling you exactly what to do. Literally, your own decisions are taken away from you.
Tags: Away, Decisions, FilmActually what I'd like is to have a reputation as someone who's been wild and gone straight, but without having to go through the trouble of being bad.
Tags: Bad, Someone, TroubleAlmost every script that I've gotten has been for sort of the generic Hollywood type. I haven't chosen them. All the ones I have chosen are because I've been fascinated with the source material or because of the script.
Tags: Almost, Hollywood, MaterialI had two family members involved in World War I: two great-uncles. One of them is on a memorial in France. And the other was a trench runner who survived the war. The average life span of a trench runner was 36 hours, but he survived the whole war.
Tags: Family, Life, WarI often talk with other actors about that time when you've just finished a job, because I think you do take on the characteristics of some of the characters you play. Sometimes it can be a great thing and sometimes it's a bit haunting because you're not quite sure how to leave it on set. My dad talks about it as being 'de-personalised.'
Tags: Dad, Great, TimeI think escapism is very important, certainly in my life. I love nothing more than escaping into the world of a film or a novel. To be involved in creating that for other people is a privilege.
Tags: Film, Life, LoveI think every film actor secretly wants to be a rock star as well; just that part of the job which requires the extrovert in you. Even if you've become an actor because it's your way of hiding in plain sight, there's still part of you which has that craving.
Tags: Become, Job, RockI was heavily into sport from 10 to 15, I was in all the teams, and it was everything to me. But I was very young for my school year and when puberty kicked in for my classmates I got left behind.
