I like the idea of people having romantic tendencies towards a place they don't know that well. I think it's great. Why not? My dad's view of New York is very similar to Americans' when they talk about Ireland.
Sometimes films about oppression or suppression can be quite maudlin and quite dour. Sometimes you need a little sugar with the medicine and I think of myself as the little sugar.
I'm more like a spoon symbol. I think women just want to spoon me.
I'd like to think that I'm getting slightly more mature as time goes on, but I don't know if my fiancee would necessarily agree.
I don't know if I'd do an action movie because I don't know if I could keep a straight face honestly, I just think it's so silly. Like, I love watching them but I can't imagine me doing one. Actually, you know what I've done, just for fun because I didn't think there was any way that I could be in a superhero movie, so I've done a scene in the new 'Thor' movie, just for that.

I'm never overawed by a situation and I think that's because I've always looked several years older than I am. So because people were treating me like I was 40 when I was 29, I've always felt in control of a situation. People used to say, when you're 32, you'll look 32. I'm still waiting for that moment, where my age catches up with my appearance.
I've gone up for loads of jobs in the past that I knew were going to be terrible, and I've done my best, and I still haven't got them. So I think I've been lucky in who's decided I'd be worthy of their time.
What I think improv is great for is making dialogue more natural.
Hey, I think comic actors are the best actors.
I think there's something in the fact that it's hard to be good looking and funny. You have to have an oddball quality; people have to sympathise with you to find you funny.
I don't think the public here buy this idea that women and men speak different comedic languages.
I think I'm going to keep my Irish accent forever now in any movie I make, because chicks dig it and that's all I care about now!
Well, when you're the youngest of five, parents kind of lose interest more and more through the children. I think my eldest brother was under loads of pressure to do something amazing with his life, but by the time I came around they were like, 'Well, let's hope he doesn't kill a guy.
