The news business is simple but it's not easy to do well. You know the story, you have to cover it, you need pictures, you need good writers, you have to get it to the screen but it's obviously not easy to do well.

I was too young to be an avid enthusiast for the franchise, but like billions of people I remember as a child sitting around with the family on a Friday night with pizza and popcorn and a 'Die Hard' movie on.

I started coming to L.A. as often as I could, for three months on and three months off, because immigration kicks you out after 90 days.

I was a bit of a show-off in school and loved playing dress-up, and my passion for it just grew as I got older.

I went to the Avengers: Age of Ultron and I'm like, These guys are Olympians now. There's no place for a Walter Matthau in a movie anymore.

I've always played sport. I played rugby, I was involved in athletics, I played cricket... I'm an outdoors kind of guy.

I don't know if I'm an action star or if that's just how things are shaping up. I would hate to be boxed into that forever, but it's probably just a strength as far as my type goes, and I'm fine with that.

My mum is a school teacher and my dad is an electrician.

I'm not someone who has a lengthy attention span, and that applies to my exercise routine as well.

I had this alter ego where I would go to the theater with mom. I wasn't embarrassed by it it was separate for me.

There are roles out there I want to play that I don't know if I'll ever get the chance to. But I'm not going to waste time waiting for those phone calls, passing up the chance to do these sorts of things. I'm more likely to go see a smaller, darker indie film, like Felony for instance, than I am to see an Avengers or perhaps even a Terminator.
