As an actor, you are aware of how a role can seep into your real life.

Having your adolescence at an all-male boarding school is just crap.

I think the characters are supposed to be an open book, blank canvas.

I’ve seen and swam and climbed and lived and driven and filmed. Should it all end tomorrow, I can definitely say there would be no regrets. I am very lucky, and I know it. I really have lived 5,000 times over.

Enjoy the journey of life and not just the endgame. I’m also a great believer in treating others as you would like to be treated.

When you’re a kid, ‘Star Trek’ is a slower burn. It’s funny, it’s entertaining, but it also has a maturity about it – which is its universal appeal, I think.

I chose the name Pi because it’s an irrational number (one with no discernable pattern). Yet scientists use this irrational number to come to a “rational” understanding of the universe. To me, religion is a bit like that, “irrational” yet with it we come together we come to a sound understanding of the universe.
