More quotes by Clive Owen
I actually really love working with young actors because they're so responsive and instinctive, and it's a much less honed craft that they're employing.
Clive Owen
Ultimately, to have a career in movies, to a certain extent, certainly in England, you can't sustain a career in just English movies.
Clive Owen
One of the things I love, more than anything, is jumping around and playing lots of different parts. I love the variety of playing different characters.
Clive Owen
A room full of great sportsmen is so much better than a room full of actors.
Clive Owen

A lot of the projects that I do, I like to be involved with earlier. I just feel that, certainly from an acting point of view, it's easier to do my job, if I'm included in what the intentions are, for why people are doing what they're doing, especially with a director.

Clive Owen
One of the views of the [actor's] job is that whatever age you are, there's a role that's about who you are and where you are. There are parts for that age that you can bring things to.
Clive Owen
You see these actresses who have had Botox or something else done, and it takes you out of the film.
Clive Owen
I'd like to do a film which is funny.
Clive Owen
For an actor, it's very important to get a clear idea of what a director wants, and their intention for what they want to get out of a scene and how they want to shoot it. Having that knowledge is really valuable, for an actor. It means you can deliver more.
Clive Owen
I've got actor friends who didn't get breaks, who struggle and worry about things that I'm fortunate not to have to worry about.
Clive Owen
I do wear suits all the time.
Clive Owen
Movies are certainly a director's medium, so getting the opportunity to work with really good directors is everything to me.
Clive Owen
I dread karaoke. I hate karaoke. I can't sing - that is why.
Clive Owen
For me, London is and always will be home.
Clive Owen
I was very keen on playing a victim.
