It's always bitterly disappointing to people to see how normally one can live.

If you can jump up onstage and make people laugh, shouldn't you also be able to inhabit a character?

I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job.

I like the unknown. I like mystery.

I think if you had to map that out at the beginning and you said, Right, sit down, this is what you're going to be doing, you'd probably freak out. But I'm someone who really enjoys not being himself. So if you consider that, then it all sort of makes sense.

I really enjoy working on small films.

I knew a bit but we don't study a lot of British history at school in Australia. We have our own 50-year period to concentrate on.

If you're lucky enough to be involved in a film that's about something very real and that you hope will continue to hold up in 20 years' time it just gives you more energy and makes it feel all the more worthwhile.

I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.

It really depends on the director. I think quite often, it's not what you expect. The most serious film can be the most fun. The one that's supposed to be fun can be the most serious. I don't think there are any hard-and-fast rules. I just think it really depends on your director and what the general vibe is.

I enjoy just being cocooned in production and it's completely different to your other life that you have. I enjoy that. I enjoy being on the set and hanging out and talking to whoever we're working with and just being in the moment.
Eric Bana
Image
I love working with people who have had television experience because I think there's a real efficiency and methodology that comes from that background.
Eric Bana
Image
The movies people don't talk about or remember after six months' time don't really matter.
Eric Bana
Image
When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.
Eric Bana

The thing I love about working with first-time directors is that it's always quite shocking how little difference there is between them and directors who've been directing all their lives.

I'm not into bikinis or other revealing clothing.
Eric Bana
Image
I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.

Definitely the script because you want to be part of an interesting story, you want your character to be a challenge, then comes the director. But essentially it's the script first and whether it's a character that you think you can do.

I'm always reading and looking around for the next thing.

I look my best when I take my helmet off after a long motorcycle ride. I have a glow and a bit of helmet hair.
