“Technology still freaks me out a bit.”

I became an actor so I can show you characters and never have to show you me.

I try to remind myself that all of this could be over tomorrow, because I could wake up and magically be 35 feet tall and not be able to act in movies anymore.

I was in a movie for five minutes where I play tennis and I was given five tennis lessons for free. I never had a tennis lesson. I was like, that’s awesome! When else would I have taken up tennis?

Playing a bad guy is always more fun than playing the good guy.

I was always very dramatic – my family would probably use the word ‘dramatic’ – as a child; always putting on performances, making everyone come watch, and pay to watch. I was very business-savvy as a child.

I don’t even know how to Direct Message someone on Instagram. I still write letters.

Obviously social media has had a massive impact on the fame game, but not in a positive way. But it can be for some.

I think they’ve finally realized that women go to see movies as much as men do. Ticket sales are coming from them as well, so why not appeal to them? I think they’re finding a way.

I send thank you notes, not emails, even if I’m staying at a friend’s house or something. I’m very old school.

It does feel bizarre, having someone in your work space who’s so much younger than you.

I always dress kind of monochromatic and very simple and all that kind of stuff.

I make my friends pull up their profiles and I’m like, “Show me everything.”

Scent has become a way for me to differentiate characters.

I feel much more comfortable either up in a tree, or underwater. That’s where I feel the most zen.

Living in London, the water is really harsh, and my hair got so bad as soon as I moved there. But you can’t really avoid that.

The ’60s are my favorite decade – with the Cold War, the women’s movement. And then there’s the music, the fashion, the clothes, the hair.
