Ultimately the most challenging thing, always, is to just be convincing
Guy Pearce
I think when people are repressing things, or burying things, that can manifest in all sorts of ways.
Guy Pearce
A lot of action characters are a little bit too serious as well. They take themselves a bit too seriously, which I don't find particularly interesting, whereas I like the fact that there was at least some humor in this because really it's a piece of entertainment.
Guy Pearce
I am geared towards communicating on a female level.
Guy Pearce
I don't believe in God, but the thing I do believe in is that we're all connected.
