I always thought I'd make films. I didn't think I'd be in them.
-
I don't want to be forty-five and still a freshman.
-
It's surreal working with people you admire. I don't think it ever goes away, no matter how human people are; there's always that moment of 'Oh wow, that's still George Clooney!' But I find that the most talented people tend to be the nicest.
-
We just have to accept who we are, and I'm a film nerd, for better or worse.
-
If you go to my Netflix, the sections that they recommend are 'Thrillers with a Strong Female Lead,' 'Comedies With a Strong Female Lead.'
-
I was alone more than most kids.
-
I always prefer shooting on locations, because when I'm at home, it's harder to sort of get lost in the world of whatever you're making.
-
'Mean Girls' is awesome.
-
I'm an only child, and so I over-rely on my friends to lend their support.
-
I really love stories about women.
-
I think we all want to find the love of our life and live our fantasies. What art student hasn't used his art to get girls? What journalists or actors haven't used their craft as well? It's a very human instinct to pursue.
-
I love 'Scarface.'
-
I never felt particularly alienated as an English person in America. It doesn't feel culturally like a massive gap to me.
-
I'm on Twitter. I love Twitter because I'm kind of voyeuristic. I don't tweet, but I look at other people's.
-
My dad had a company, and there were various films that hadn't gone into production that I'm trying to nurture.
-
26 is my favourite number.
-
The power of love is a strong thing.
-
I love Michael Bay movies. I don't think I'd be selling out if I did one. I happen to like his movies. I think selling out is doing something you don't believe in, and you're doing it for a selfish purpose.
-
I'm pretty reclusive. I'm a homebody.
-
I'm so disappointed in the frat parties at Columbia. I'm like an English boy going to an American college. I'm thinking cheerleaders, I'm thinking kegs. That's not what's on the cards.
-
With a famous name, you have to work that much harder to get the part.
-
I have no agenda at all. I just want to do stuff I like. It can cost $200 million or $200 thousand.
-
I behave differently in different situations, and I'm slightly unstable and insecure, which I think are natural conditions of what I do. And I have a weird ear. Whatever I hear, I emulate. When I was a kid I did impressions: Forrest Gump, Rain Man, really big caricatures.

The media in the States can be quite self-reflective. When I lived in England, I was much more aware of the day-to-day politics that were happening. Living somewhere where the media involvement is greater and so omnipresent, you become pulled into it and, at the same time, because of that, politics changes and the way it's handled changes.
