You can never connect on a deeper level if you idolise someone - you don't see the real person.

I'm not very active on social media. I'm not on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram, or anything like that. But I think it's wonderful that they're out there. They're fantastic. I have a lot of siblings and friends that use it, and it's great for them. It's such a connected world.

For me, creatively, I'd suffocate if I played the same thing, over and over again. I want challenges. I want to sit down with a director and be like, I've never done this before, but it's going to be exciting. It's scary, but really thrilling, so let's do it!

Swedes are such a civilised, perfect society - at least on the surface. There's a great safety net, a huge middle class, free education, free health care. People are very polite, they wait their turn. They're not too loud, they're not too quiet, but sometimes it's a little too perfect.

You can use the internet in a way that's actually really great. It doesn't have to be about how amazing you are, or Come watch my show!, or Look what I'm wearing today. It doesn't have to be narcissistic.

To turn off your phone when you go to your country house or you're on vacation for a few days is important. I turn off my phone and just check it once a day. I turn it on and, if it's an important message, I'll call back. Otherwise, it can wait.

I don't fall often, but I fall hard. And when you fall hard, it takes a while to get up.

Whether I'm interested [in something] or not, step one is read the script and figure out if a character is someone I'd want to explore or not.

I like to dress up and put on a nice suit for a party or a special event I do enjoy it, but on a daily basis I wear stuff that I feel comfortable in.

I wasn't like a Hollywood child actor - I'm five! I can sing, I can dance, I can act! I wanna be a star!

Life isn't one-dimensional. The world isn't simply divided into good versus evil. I think we're all capable of both.

My plan was never to be an actor like my father...

All the characters I play are all inside of me in a way, and they're all different, the darkness, the lightness, whatever that is.

I can't express how much admiration I have for women in general, who walk around in high heels, but, drag queens, oh my god.

When I was four or five, I would organise my cars and my action figures. I needed some kind of structure, I think.

Being followed is weird, that people want to discuss where I ate lunch or what I wear when I go to lunch... the private life is just gone.
