मैं कभी किसी एक्टिंग स्कूल या ऐसी किसी जगह नहीं गया। मेरे लिए हमेशा स्कूल के नाटक और सांस्कृतिक कार्यक्रम ही सब कुछ रहे। अभिनय के मामले में मेरे लिए खास बात यह थी कि यही इकलौती ऐसी चीज़ थी जिस पर मैं पूरी तरह ध्यान केंद्रित कर सकता था। मुझे खेलकूद बहुत पसंद था। मुझे पढ़ाई-लिखाई से असल में कोई खास लगाव नहीं था।

I never went to stage school or anything like that. It was always plays, productions at school and things like that. The thing for me with acting was it was the only thing I could fully concentrate on. I loved playing sports. I didn't really love studying.

मैं ब्रिटिश सिनेमा का बहुत बड़ा प्रशंसक हूँ; मुझे लगता है कि हम कुछ अविश्वसनीय रूप से बेहतरीन फिल्में बनाते हैं, लेकिन अक्सर उनमें एक उदास या गहरा अहसास झलकता है।

I'm a big fan of British cinema; I think we make some unbelievably brilliant films, but they can quite often have a dark feel.

मुझे लाइव कॉन्सर्ट में जाना पसंद है। लाइव बैंड का संगीत काफी भारी-भरकम हो सकता है, लेकिन साथ ही मुझे लगता है कि यह काफी सुकून देने वाला भी होता है क्योंकि इससे आप बहुत खुश और तनावमुक्त महसूस करते हैं।

I like going to see live bands. Live bands can be quite heavy, but I think it's very relaxing at the same time because you feel so happy and chilled-out.

बचपन से ही मैं हर चीज़ में आगे रहता था, चाहे वह स्कूल का कोई नाटक हो या बच्चों का कोई खेल। मौका कहीं का भी हो, मैं उसमें शामिल हो जाता था और मुझे लगता है कि इसकी सबसे बड़ी वजह यह थी कि मैं सबका ध्यान अपनी ओर खींचना चाहता था।

जब मैं बड़ा हो रहा था तब मेरे लिए संगीत बहुत मायने रखता था, और स्कोर्सेसे और क्वेंटिन टारनटिनो दोनों ही अपनी फिल्मों में संगीत का बहुत बेहतरीन इस्तेमाल करते हैं। वे शायद फिल्मों में संगीत का इस्तेमाल करने वाले सर्वश्रेष्ठ निर्देशकों में से दो हैं।

Music was a big thing for me growing up and Scorsese and Tarantino both use music brilliantly in movies. They're probably two of the best at using music.

मैंने 1920 के दशक के जैज़, अल जॉन्सन और इंग्लैंड के कई शुरुआती गायकों को खूब सुना। मैं थोड़ा दायरे से बाहर जाकर यह महसूस करना चाहता था कि उस दौर की दुनिया कैसी होगी, खासकर 30 के दशक में जब जैज़ संगीत बदल रहा था।
