Within the microcosm of a film you get drawn to people. There are certain projects you care enormously about, and 'The Edge Of Love' was one because I was portraying a great hero of mine, Dylan Thomas.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I think my mother would be very happy if I found a nice Welsh girl.
Matthew Rhys
Image
We're sometimes treated like the stupid cousin, so I'm always drawn to characters that make you feel good about being Welsh.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I call Sally Field 'America's Mother!' She is incredible to watch.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I feel comfortable here primarily because I think Los Angeles is made up of people who don't come from here, so you can find kindred spirits very easily. It's a town of gypsies.
Matthew Rhys
Image
When I speak to people from Britain, that's when I feel like a fake, speaking with an American accent.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I'm certainly not one of those actors who remain in a dark place the entire time in order to be doing the scene. I sort of come in and out of it. It can be to the detriment of my performance sometimes!
Matthew Rhys
Image
I thought maybe I'd be a farmer. That was another silly notion. I think I'd last about five minutes, being a farmer.
Matthew Rhys
Image
There's such a unique humour in Wales that I just love and miss in Los Angeles.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I wasn't one of the cool kids by any stretch. I just bumbled along really.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I love the stage. I'm always sniffing around to see if there's something I can squidge in quickly.
Matthew Rhys
Image
In my head, I think I'd make a perfect spy, but in reality, I don't think I'd fare very well.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I got a lot out of 'Brothers Sisters' and learnt some incredible things and I think it certainly had come to a natural ending, so it was definitely time to move on.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I've suffered from an identity crisis my entire life. It's why I went into acting.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I was shocked by the amount of Welsh people in L.A. We'd go to this British pub to watch the 'Six Nations' early in the morning and I remember the first time I walked in it was just a sea of red.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I'm 33 now and I seem to have hit a fitness plane. Shifting the wobbly bits isn't as easy as it used to be.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I first went to the Chubut valley, the colony that runs about 800km across the width of Argentina, in 2000. My uncle had been there tracing family and came back saying I had to go. So a year later I did.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I definitely want to go back to the theatre. It is hard work, it is repetitive, but it is intensely rewarding.
Matthew Rhys
Image
I absolutely loved my time at 'Brothers & Sisters,' what I learned and everything that went with it. It was an incredibly formative time for me.
