I was never an A student, but I was really well behaved until I was 13 or so.

I hadn't really met Colin [Farell]. It's really weird to say: 'Oh, hello, I'm Kate...I'm Colin.. shall we?' That's a bit strange. Len was fine with it. We've gone through this experience with Scott Speedman before on the first Underworld move. It was our little version of swinging. We survived that.

Pain seems to be easier, or melancholy seems to be easier to portray in a character. I don't know if that's because I'm a human being or because I'm an Irishman or both.

Seven years sober. I'm really grateful. It's really lovely to be present in my life.

Anything that's different from your own realm of experience as a human being, whether it's driving a car or a boat, or using guns, anything that separates you from yourself and leads you more towards this character's existence is a big help.

I'm not optimistic at all, nor am I pessimistic.
Colin Farrell
Image
I love the grandiosity, how sweepingly entertaining films can be. And I think there's a place for films that pry more into the human condition.

Image
If you need to get in physical shape for a film and you have to maintain that for six months, at the start of the film, I was never able to do it.

Image
I love my kids. I'm crazy about them.
Colin Farrell
Image
But I dare not think too far into the future on the risk that I'll miss the present.

Image
I just recently realized. It's very strange. But doing fight scenes with Kate [Beckinsale], I was little bit more cautious. You can go harder with a guy, which I don't mean as an insult.

Image
I'm not going to lie, there are more interesting ways to spend your time than answering questions about yourself. But if there were no questions to ask me, I might have a beef with that.

It's so technical. It's nothing personal. You're not fighting really, you're missing each other by a half of foot at least, ideally more and you get a few knocks and bruises. But with the kissing, you do kiss someone. Its lips on lips.
