The Bit I Love Is I Really

I'm An Eternal Realist And The Success Rate For Being An Actor Is Pretty Low.

Everybody Is Great And The Chemistry Is Different With Everyone. That Is The Joy Of Acting - You Really Don't Know How It Is Going To Go Until You Turn Up. It's Like Playing Tennis, You Can't Plan For The Match You Are Going To Play Until You Are Actually Up Against Your Opponent And What Happens, Happens. That Is The Joy Of Being On Set.

Heath Ledger's Performance In The Dark Knight Quite Simply Changed The Game. He Raised The Bar Not Just For Actors In Superhero Films, But Young Actors Everywhere; For Me. His Performance Was Dark, Anarchic, Dizzying, Free, And Totally, Thrillingly, Dangerous.

You Look At The Greatest Villains In Human History, The Fascists, The Autocrats, They All Wanted People To Kneel Before Them Because They Don't Love Themselves Enough.

I Love Playing All Kinds Of Roles. I Hope It Doesn’t Sound Too Pretentious, But I Always Feel Human Nature Is Like A Piano, And There Are 88 Keys, And There Are Some White Keys And Some Black Keys, And Each Character Is A Different Chord On The Piano. Basically, I Hope That In The Course Of My Life, I Will Have Played All 88 Keys. So, I’ll Have Played Heroes And Villains And Princes And Kings And Warriors And Beggars And Thieves And Lovers And Fathers And Wizards And All Of Those Things. That Is Why I’m An Actor… I Love Studying People.
