I wanted to be a journalist, I thought it was glamorous and that I'd meet beautiful women in the rain.
Bill Nighy

If you ever see me in a social setting wearing any sort of sportswear, then you know I'm in crisis.
Bill Nighy
Image
A way of describing performances that I admire is that there is an absence of careerism. It's a clumsy way of describing it but it sort of does it for me.
Bill Nighy
Image
I guess part of the hit-man appeal is the solitude. Everybody is lured to the idea of the solitary life.

I never go on the net or the web, or whatever it's called.

There is something, yeah, I mean traditionally it's more fun to play bad guys than it is good guys and when you're playing a bad guy, yeah, the fun in it is to see how scary you can be, how horrible you can be. And it's surprising what you come up with.

With stage, you feel completely like you're just in a bubble. I love not being able to see anything. I love coming out and I can't see anything because the lights are so bright and it's pitch black. That's ideal for me, that's when I have the best time.

If you are supposed to be villainous and have some sort of agenda, I like the idea of delivering that kind of character in a perfectly well-mannered way.

I would like to change everything, but obviously not everything. I've been incredibly fortunate. I guess everybody would do this, but I'd go back to my younger self and say, Lighten up. Take it easy. Relax. Don't be so anxious about everything. Try to be in the day. Try to not have today stolen from you by anxiety about yesterday or tomorrow.

You have all these plans to act, and maybe do it rather elegantly, and then they turn the rain machine on.

Standing in front of a fake mountain with fake snow falling and seven girls dressed as Santarettes will stay in my memory.

The degree of notoriety I have is fine and easy. There's nothing hysterical about it.
Bill Nighy
Image
I got briefly mistaken for someone who might be good in bed, which was very, very good.

There are only three men in the world who are licensed to wear shorts: Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp and Tom Cruise.
Bill Nighy
Image
One of the reasons I like a suit is because I've never been that keen on my body. The shape a suit presents is always going to be better than anything I can do.

When it comes to casual clothing, my enthusiasm for clothes starts to waver.
Bill Nighy
Image
I'm a jacket man. And if I'm without one, I am kind of seriously disabled. I don't know how to operate in shirt sleeves.
Bill Nighy
Image
One of my great regrets, and I don't have many, is that I spent too long putting people's status and reputation ahead of their more important qualities. I learned far too late in life that a long list of letters after someone's name is no guarantee of compassion, kindness, humour, all the far more relevant stuff.

I'm not a World War II buff. I know a little bit about it, I was taught the other side of the story in school, so it was unfamiliar to me, the idea of a German resistance, and yet it was considerable.

I'm crazy about James Brown. I'm crazy about soul music. And then the blues. Rhythm and blues.
