I don't carry off 'quirky.'
I come from south Wales. A place called Aberbargoed.
Vampires were always able to transform into creatures of the night. The dark creatures like bats have always been associated with vampires and using the darkness to their own advantage.
A watch is a fashion statement, and it says something about the person wearing it.
I don't comment on other people's opinion.
It was never really part of my plan to be in films; it was really sort of a dream.
I've dabbled in period films in my career, and I've enjoyed each one.
In all honesty, I should have given up this acting lark years ago.
I think heroes are the people that go into houses when they're on fire and save people in hospitals.
I've always said that theater was where I began, so everything I do now has a bit of my theater background in it. It was my training.
I look in the mirror, and I don't mind what I see.
I really loved 'Fast Five.' I thought it was a brilliant movie. I thought it was so well done, well directed. The action sequences were really well thought out. It looked fantastic.
My style is determined by the mood, the period and the circumstances which I'm going through in a given moment.
I come from a country that lives and breathes rugby, and I didn't think there would be anywhere else in the world that could be the same. But New Zealand takes it to another dimension. It's extraordinary how much passion Kiwis have for the game.
When I didn't get a job, I thought, 'Don't worry, there'll be another one.' I still live by that now. Nothing really fazes me any more.
I've got two cows licks; when I was a kid, all the boys in school used to have curtains, and my hair never used to do that, ever! I always used to try, and I always looked like the geek.
Before the 'Fast & Furious' promo in Manila, I went on a vacation in the Philippines 10 years earlier. I loved it. My 'Miss Saigon' friends showed me around.
It's just hard to get an independent film made.
To me, growing up in South Wales, a pair of Diesel jeans were the thing to have - if you could afford them.
Being involved in 'The Hobbit' has been a huge boost for me. It's really put me on the map and helped me be taken more seriously as an actor.
Costume is a massive thing. I think costume makes you stand differently.
