I remember someone saying to my mom that it must be so glamorous to have a child acting in movies. They had no idea how hard it was for her.

The negative about acting is that you have to spend a great deal of time away from your friends and loved ones, but it's not like working a 9-5 job and only having two or three weeks off a year. I may not have seen my girlfriend for two or three months, but then we can spend two or three months together solidly.

I may not have seen my girlfriend for two or three months, but then we can spend two or three months together solidly. It's swings and roundabouts.

I think Hollywood is interesting. As an actor, Hollywood would be a horrible place to go if you weren't actually invited.

For the moment, whenever I read, it is normally scripts. You start a book and then you think, 'I should be reading these five scripts.'

I love clothes and do sort of change my wardrobe a lot. But a thousand dollar jacket? I'd rather spend it on an experience, like traveling.

I love the challenge of playing characters forced on life-changing emotional journeys. To work on a project with Billy Crudup and Sam Rockwell is just a dream come true.

'GQ,' you've been patiently and stylishly educating me forever. To be truly stylish, you have to be kind and courteous.

I grew up in London, and that's where I spend most of my time. Unless I have a really good reason not to be, I'll always be in London.

I can play the trumpet. Before I became an actor, I wanted to be the next Louis Armstrong. I started young and got to grade seven. When I turned 13, everyone started whipping out guitars, looking cool and joining rock bands, so I stopped playing.

Articles always end up being about my appearance. I had a conversation with Jude Law: he told me people's obsession with looks goes away after a while.

I love to go see films, even on my own. I just walk to the nearest cinema. There's nothing better than watching a movie alone; you can just sit there and zone in.

I love art. My sister is an artist and my mother is a painter, so it is very much in the family. I haven't ever wanted to be a fine artist myself - my sister robbed me of my artistic talent, I think.

Some people call me Dougie Fresh. I don't know why.

I looked on IMDB, at the message boards there, and someone had posted something about a sheep having more talent than me.

I saw 'The Fountain' because my friend came over one day and said, 'This is my favorite movie I've ever seen. Please watch this,' and I watched it, and that was amazing.

Even to this day, when someone says something derogatory about Boy George, it still upsets and offends me. Part of me will always be quite attached to him.

I love to dance and dance all night long.

On a Friday night, I like to go out because my friends, who have been working normal hours, just want to let go after a stressful week at work.

It's fun to play a dark character, but you go home at the end of the day not feeling very good about yourself. You go away feeling dirty. It seeps into the air.

When I was younger, I looked a lot older than I was. They have these working laws in England where you have to be 16: if you're over 16, you don't have to be restrained by working hours and things like that. In America, it's actually 18.

I turned down one of the big young adult franchises.
