There's a lot of intensity when you're on a set. And then it just goes away and no one's giving you attention or flooding you with compliments.
My parents were so relaxed by the time I was growing up that I got away with a lot more.
I've already started saying that I'm 30 when I'm still 29. That way, I'm already there.
TV is very much a producer and writer or creator-driven machine in the States. And I'm the kind of actor that needs to be pushed and have someone on my case a little bit, so I suffer from that.
The British are so funny. It's like they can't believe I lived in Hackney. 'You could live in Bondi Beach. Why would you want to live in 'Ackney?' But Hackney's fantastic. I'm serious. There are so many artists there. I loved the markets, the parks, the pubs, the diversity. It was a cultural melting-pot.
I tend to spiral out of control if I'm not working. I get panicked and don't know what to do with myself.
