We live in a beauty-obsessed age and success sometimes appears to hinge solely on the presentation of an image that is acceptable to the press.

When I do go to L.A., it is usually for a reason - to meet with a director or something - but I'm always so happy to go back to London.

I knew I wanted to do something creative. I am dyslexic, so I really struggled in school. I knew I was never going to sit behind a desk or do something involving numbers.

Going over to Lesvos in Greece and meeting some of these poor refugees who have just made the treacherous sea crossing opened my eyes in a way I can't even being to describe. It's put a fire in my belly to really try to do something, the little I can do.

I had friends who ran off to become ski instructors or worked in cool bars, and I often envied them, but I know I'd quickly become bored with that kind of life. I always need to push myself.

I love to dance and dance all night long.

The negative about acting is that you have to spend a great deal of time away from your friends and loved ones.
Douglas Booth
Image
I'd imagine a great date would be to go skiing. Imagine going skiing. Go ski with someone, if they can ski.

Image
I want to be challenged, I want to keep challenging myself - whether or not it's changing yourself physically or just pushing yourself to a certain extreme. I get bored quite easily so I like to keep my mind entertained by challenging myself.

You can have a great script, or a great director and a bad script, and get a great movie. Nothing really guarantees anything.

I like to travel, but honestly I really like to just be at home in London and spend time with my friends.
Douglas Booth
Image
I grew up in London, and that's where I spend most of my time. Unless I have a really good reason not to be, I'll always be in London.

The most romantic things are very small, kind gestures from people you love.
Douglas Booth
Image
I'm still in the first baby steps of my career, so I've got so much to learn and so much to figure out.
Douglas Booth
Image
The best thing I've ever done for a girl hopefully is make them happy. Isn't that the most romantic thing you can do?
Douglas Booth
Image
I love the challenge of playing characters forced on life-changing emotional journeys. To work on a project with Billy Crudup and Sam Rockwell is just a dream come true.

I would be the last person on earth to complain about what I do - I feel very fortunate and I know there are a million jobs in the world that are much, much harder - but it's not always an easy or glamorous thing to do, that's for sure.

Travel is best when it's as unplanned as possible so that you get that real sense of adventure. The film 'Thelma and Louise' really encapsulates that - their travels are unplanned and spontaneous and therefore full of excitement, escapism and optimism.

I've always had a social awareness. My favorite channel on TV is BBC News 24. For a while, I had to have it on repeat in my house. I've always been interested in what's going on in the world.

Image
Some people can very easily switch off and be guilt free, not that what I'm doing is about guilt, but they can completely disconnect and not care because it doesn't affect them. I've always really cared about what happens and felt a certain responsibility.

One of the biggest things I used to struggle with was about things like going on holiday. Whereas all your friends can talk about something and plan something all year long, I know that I'm probably going to be away and I'm going to miss all of it. If a job comes up, you just can't be there.
