Da: personally, however, was there a role, a film project or even a single moment on set that made you go “yes, this is what i’m going to be doing for the rest of my life”? te:

it was probably just the moment when i was first hired as a professional actor. Before that, i’d spent three years at drama school and it felt like such a big dream. you’re surrounded by the knowledge that most drama students don’t end up having careers as actors. So, getting that first job really made me believe that it was a tangible dream.

i would say work hard and back yourself. When you’re auditioning, make specific choices and stick to them. Don’t get caught up in guessing what you think they would want.

i love sports. i’ll watch any kind, really, but i grew up as an avid football fan in the u.k.. i’m a massive arsenal fan. i also love to play golf, but my handicap has suffered somewhat recently because i have no time to play.
