My Take On People And On The Characters I Play In Transsiberian, The Role You're Looking For, Is That Everybody Is More Than One Thing. We're Many Things, All Of Us, And There Are Times When We Are Capable Of Great Levity And Jolliness And Then There Are Times When The Opposite Is True.

It Was Great To Have A Few Days Of Just Talking To Michael [caine] And Daniel [barber] And Thinking About The Characters And The Relationship Between Them Before We Started Shooting.

I Want Any Excuse To Come Home. My Dad Is Not A Spring Chicken Any More. If Anyone Says, 'go Buy A Postage Stamp In London,' I'll Go And Do It.
