More quotes by Michael Sheen
So, if they're coming in and having to do scenes that involve nudity or sexuality, in some way, the utmost important thing is that everyone feels comfortable and safe. If there's any gray area, that's going to be a problem.
Michael Sheen
By the time you are 30 you are still trying to make your 15-year-old self happy but you are a different person. You need to be brave and let go of that.
Michael Sheen
It's funny the more technological advanced everything gets, the more like acting in your bedroom when you're a kid it is.

Hopefully, any character I play has an anchor in reality. The more fantastical characters, or fantastical worlds that they inhabit are really fun and allow you, in some ways, to tell stories and reveal things about our lives that would be harder to take, in a more realistic setting.
Michael Sheen
What's enjoyable for me, as an actor, is to do as many different things as possible.

I enjoy doing things that involve research because it's part of what I enjoy about acting.

It has to be absolutely believable. It's also going between images and scenes with nudity and sexuality that would be seen, in conventional terms, as kind of sexually exciting. It's up against things that are much more medical and gynecological, and notoriously we, as a culture and a society, have some issues with that kind of thing.

Hopefully, any character I play has an anchor in reality.
Michael Sheen
I try not to pay any attention to clothes fascism and I'd rather be thought of as someone who has his own sense of style.
Michael Sheen
We knew, very early on, that we had to be very, very clear that directors need to speak to actors and actresses and be very clear about what is expected, and find out whether they're comfortable with that. Wardrobe has to be in place. There have to be checks.
Michael Sheen
Getting older is a struggle. I always feel that just under the surface of acceptance and enjoyment of the ageing process is a terrible hysteria just waiting to burst out.
Michael Sheen
We see death constantly on film.

My own daughter is a big fan of the 'Twilight' stories, the books.
Michael Sheen
I'm a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy - not so much horror because I get a bit scared.
Michael Sheen
I have a daughter, and fairies meant a lot to her growing up.
Michael Sheen
Well, I think tone is very important with this show [Masters of Sex] because there are certain elements or certain aspects to the show that may be reminiscent of other shows. But, it really is a very new kind of show, in terms of the subject matter and the way it's being dealt with, and the fact that it's about real people and real events.
