[As an actor] I have ideas, but things should always be fluid. You should always be ready to follow an instinct. Something might reveal itself on the day.

More quotes by Michael Fassbender
The actors I looked up to when I was a teenager, they all just disappeared into different characters.
Michael Fassbender
As an actor, it's always been good to be working at all.
Michael Fassbender
Everyone's crazy anyway. And those who think they aren't, are the ones who are even crazier - because they're in denial.
Michael Fassbender
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!
Michael Fassbender
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.
Michael Fassbender
It's the worst thing if you're sitting there in the theater, going, Oh, that's the guy who dates this person and likes to do this in the morning and that in the afternoon. Then you're just watching a brand, as opposed to an actor.
Michael Fassbender
I don't think peroxide-blond hair is a beneficial look for me.
Michael Fassbender
I might have been curious about actors' lives when I was growing up. That's human nature.
Michael Fassbender
It's such a terrifying thing when mobs of people get together and persecute foreigners.
Michael Fassbender
My goal was for acting to become my main income. I would say to myself, 'I'm good enough'. That became my mantra.
Michael Fassbender
I'm not going to talk about my private life with a total stranger, unless I feel like I need to. Why would I? I don't.
Michael Fassbender
It's more interesting isn't it, if I've got a hedonistic dark side?
Michael Fassbender
Everything I put my name to and take part in, I want to be good. That's not saying it will always happen. But I want to make bold choices.
Michael Fassbender
Scratch the surface of what's socially normal. I suppose in some way all of us have something we display to the public and things we feel too ashamed of or uncomfortable with to reveal to other people.
Michael Fassbender
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.
Michael Fassbender
Nowadays, especially in big commercial films it's much easier for the audience, and they tend to get spoonfed. It's much more interesting to me, people leave the theater and they start asking themselves questions and find their own moral compass about what these characters have been doing.
Michael Fassbender
I'm fairly competitive.
Michael Fassbender
Being movie director you've got the art department, you've got the actors, you've got the camera department, you've got make-up and hair, and props. You've got your finger in all these pies, and you're making sure that everything cooks at the right temperature.
Michael Fassbender
I'm always interested in trying to investigate different personalities. I want to keep myself guessing and keep the fear element alive, so that I don't get too comfortable.
Michael Fassbender
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.
