More quotes by Luke Evans
I always wanted to sing, as a child.
Luke Evans
And I love to cook! I've impressed hundreds of women with my cooking. And they always come back for more.
Luke Evans
It's just hard to get an independent film made.
Luke Evans
It must be weird having one child.
Luke Evans
For your own self-respect and sanity, your creative freedom, you have to be careful that you don't rely too much on other people's opinions of what you do because it can stunt and inhibit you.
Luke Evans
Directing is something I've sort of always felt like I'd like to do at one point and I thought the best way to start it is to write something myself or with someone and I'd go from there.
Luke Evans
Each form of the acting is different. I think it keeps your mind active. TV, film and theater are different disciplines, as are independent films, opposed to studio films. There are differences in the size and the genre, or a period drama as opposed to a contemporary drama, or the types of characters.
Luke Evans
Not everybody's a great singer, but people can get better at singing. There's great singing teachers out there. It's a muscle, you just have to train it.
Luke Evans
I'm an only child. My mum and dad are six in each family. They're both twins, and they only wanted one. I always say to them though that they're lucky - it could have all gone wrong.
Luke Evans
And I knew that, being an actor, you have to take the rough with the smooth and the highs with the lows. That's how it is.
Luke Evans
Well usually if I'm having a sh***y day, I don't post anything. I don't go out just to tell everyone I'm having a great day, even if I'm not.
Luke Evans
You've got to be in the moment and respond to what you're feeling. I try to simplify it as much as possible.
Luke Evans
I think it's a slippery slope to fabricate a different life.
Luke Evans
I do love action films and I hope I'm going to do many more and learn lots of new crafts 'cause that's the joy of movies.
Luke Evans
It's quite clear if you look at the actors in film right now, some of them came from theater but they didn't come from musical theater. There's still a bit of a stigma attached to it I would say.
Luke Evans
I think my dream would have been to be a solo artist. But it didn't work out like that, and I also love to sing lots of musical stuff I was really good at that, I've got a big voice. I dropped into musical theater and really enjoyed it and I sang for about nine years of my career.
Luke Evans
Every film, every fight choreographer, wants to have a different flair, have a different fight technique. So any film I've done that involved weapons has always been fascinating because everyone is different.
Luke Evans
It's just nice to do something a bit different, and I guess when you're an actor, you have the license to do that.
Luke Evans
You can over complicate everything with techniques when you're in the moment, you have to feel that you are that character, that you're feeling the pain or the happiness or whatever it is that they're feeling in that moment. Usually the authenticity will manifest itself.
Luke Evans
Sometimes it's not about the size of your role, it's about the machine that you're part of.
