Ewan McGregor
When you've got a date on your calendar saying that you will be putting this in front of people in four weeks, that will get your nerves good, yeah.

Ewan McGregor
Everything you do on set is directly related to your imagination when you read the script for the first time.
Ewan McGregor
As a child I was taken to the pantomime or the theatre and I would always, always fall in love with somebody on the stage. And want to have sex with them.
Ewan McGregor
I don't do things lightly, I don't take a job then just phone it in, I've never done that.
Ewan McGregor
I've never worked with an acting coach, no.
Ewan McGregor
For the actors, there's something very important about that first showing of the scene to the crew, becomes like a little performance.
Ewan McGregor
I grew up in a very small town in Scotland, a little place called Crieff which is beautiful and it's at the foothills to the highlands. It's a very beautiful part of the world. It's a small, I suppose quite conservative place.
Ewan McGregor
Then, one day, when you least expect it, the great adventure finds you.
Ewan McGregor
Once you've agreed the script, you must be willing to go as far as it needs to go on set.
Ewan McGregor
I love music and I always seem to have a tune in my head.
Ewan McGregor
The beautiful thing about it is that no two directors or actors work the same way. You also learn not to be afraid of discussion and conflict.
