Music

As a boy I'd always had an interest in theater. But the idea at my school was that drama and music were to round out the man. It wasn't what one did for a living. I got over that.

Movies

I have done many movies that people hadn't seen. 'The Fountain' I spent a year on that. 'The Prestige' with Chris Nolan and 'Australia.' From my perspective it's very satisfying. Some movies people see and other movies they don't. 'Wolverine' 'X Men' I know that in some level people know me just for that and it's fine for me.

Movies

I'm doing 'Les Miserables' the movie. I've done a lot of musicals and a lot of movies and I know there are not a lot of people in Hollywood who have been down those two paths so I've been like 'Come on let's do a movie/musical.'

Life

Becoming a father I think it inevitably changes your perspective of life. I don't get nearly enough sleep. And the simplest things in life are completely satisfying. I find you don't have to do as much like you don't go on as many outings.

Hope

Acting is something I love. It's a great craft that I have a lot of respect for. But I don't think it's any greater challenge than teaching 8-year-olds or any other career. In my life I try not to make it more important than it is and I just hope that rubs off on the people around me.

Home

When I come home my daughter will run to the door and give me a big hug and everything that's happened that day just melts away.

Government

Both my parents are English and came out to Australia in 1967. I was born the following year. My parents and immigrants like them were known as '&pound10 poms.' Back then the Australian government was trying to get educated British people and Canadians – to be honest educated white people – to come and live in Australia.

Food

I love food all types of food. I love Korean food Japanese Italian French. In Australia we don't have a distinctive Australian food so we have food from everywhere all around the world. We're very multicultural so we grew up with lots of different types of food.
