Trying to identify and understand, as opposed to judging, is very important for me, in approaching characters.
Michael Fassbender
Image
I don't like to plan anything ever because it never seems to work. I'm just really...let's just get this film out and see how this one does.
Michael Fassbender
Image
Everyone's crazy anyway. And those who think they aren't, are the ones who are even crazier - because they're in denial.

It's more interesting isn't it, if I've got a hedonistic dark side?

I don't know what's going to happen. I'm flavor of the month at the moment, but somebody else is going to roll around the corner in three months' time. I just want to keep working. I can't stop!

If you're dealing with a character that actually exists, there's an awful lot of information there. So, you can put together, from the information, motivations, insecurities, reactions. Where does that seed get born, if you like?... What I do is put that together.

I just went off for two months traveling around Europe on a motorcycle and pretty much turned my phone off. I did 5,000 miles with my dad. We went through Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Italy... and then I did Spain and France by myself.

There's so much going on in the world. There's so much information being thrown at us - so many things are being sold to us, and we're being told how we should appear and how to be more successful, blah, blah, blah. How does that manifest itself? In the pressures, the stress, this need to escape.

At one point you think, well, it's funny, I could just be a starving actor... So if somebody were to pull the plug right now, there'd be no room for complaint.

Image
I might have been curious about actors' lives when I was growing up. That's human nature.

Image
I don't think peroxide-blond hair is a beneficial look for me.
Michael Fassbender
Image
As an actor, it's always been good to be working at all.
Michael Fassbender
Image
I try my best to find variety in what I'm doing, but there's a lot out there that's the same.
Michael Fassbender
Image
We did a lot of that in drama school: intellectualising and maybe justifying your position. 'I am a thinking actor and I have thought this through' - well, just do it. I much prefer the doing aspect.

When I was four, I just wanted to drive, I collected toy cars. Where does that sort of thing come from? In hindsight you go, 'Oh, liked it because of this.' Maybe it's just the wheel.

Any good kitchen should be stocked up in oysters, shouldn't they?

I’m aware of my weaknesses and THE BEAST WITHIN.

Why does a three-year-old, and it's usually boys, want to drive the tractor or have machinery and be in control of it? I don't know. Why wouldn't you ask to boil a kettle or something? Maybe you would, I dunno.

The arts are very alive in Ireland, so that had its influence on me. But I consider myself European, really.
