Approaching a comedy character is fun because you get to sit down with the director and ask, What makes you laugh? Then you end up bouncing ideas off each other.

More quotes by Matthew Lewis
Having done television, I was used to either being aware whether I got the part within the same day, or within two, three days max.
Matthew Lewis
Theater was such a different school of acting. But it really is a foundation of everything. It's where it all started! And I feel like I learned so much.
Matthew Lewis
The fame stuff, the kind words from websites and things, are very flattering and lovely, but I just wanna act.
Matthew Lewis
I mean, I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them.
Matthew Lewis
A lot of people struggle in their younger years, and I think people can relate to that.
Matthew Lewis
Leeds is quite laid-back.
Matthew Lewis
I was never really bullied at school. I was pretty confident in terms of school work and teachers and I've never shyed away from much but a lot of people have come up to me and said that they were bullied at school and my portrayal of Neville has influenced them a lot in their lives and helped them out.
Matthew Lewis
Don't get paparazzi following me everywhere. My life there is exactly the same as it would have been if I had not been in Harry Potter. So for me, Harry Potter isn't something that changed my life. It's just something I did that was a lot of fun, and I got to experience amazing things from. But my actual, personal life is the same.
Matthew Lewis
I never went to drama school.
Matthew Lewis
I'm very comfortable being at home and keeping my head down, really. It's nice being invited to night clubs and stuff, which is nice once in a while, but I prefer to kind of keep to myself.
Matthew Lewis
I'm not a big fan of people knowing too much about me.
Matthew Lewis
You know, girls in general are scarier than Voldemort.
Matthew Lewis
I wasn't attractive when I was growing up, and I don't think I am now.
Matthew Lewis
My parents are proud of me being an actor.
Matthew Lewis
Alan Rickman, who was mentored me a lot. He was very keen to offer his opinions on stuff. Not in a pretentious way. Not in a patronizing way.
Matthew Lewis
I never contemplated. I just went in there and did my acting. I never thought, What's the character actually feeling here? What's he trying to get across? And never looked at it from that classically trained actor's point of view.
Matthew Lewis
I love making people laugh, and to be able to be that humorous character was great. And I actually was very similar to Neville Longbottom. I was very shy and chubby-cheeked. I wasn't bullied at school, but I wasn't particularly outgoing. We were similar. And so I loved playing him.
Matthew Lewis
I had a screen test and an audition for the role of Neville Longbottom. It wasn't a job at that point. It was just something I enjoyed doing. And it's hard to remember back then, really, that much. But I just remember loving it.
Matthew Lewis
I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them. They've got all their home videos done in HD quality! They love it. But I struggle very much. I'm very self-conscious as an actor, anyway. I don't like watching my own performances, even in this recent one.
Matthew Lewis
In fact, my favorite Beatles song is In My Life. And from that, you can gauge that my friends mean so much to me. I love John Lennon, so it's kind of like moody... There's a lot you can gauge from that. As insignificant as it seems, as an actor, it's an interesting way to approach a character.
