Actor

I don't know if it's a consequence of 'Black Mirror,' but I am slowly becoming more and more technophobic.

Everyone has a freak flag inside them. Whether they're brave enough to show it is another matter.

One big power of an actor is knowing when to say no to something. It can be very tempting to say yes to something, because you're flattered that somebody would like to work with you, and your ego sort of takes over, but it's important to ask whether there could be something you could add to a project by being part of it.

I love being scared, and I always have done. When I was younger, I was always reading books about the paranormal, UFOs, and crop circles. I liked the idea of people seeing faces in walls and twins that could communicate with each other telepathically. I really believed it, too!

One of the things I'll always remember from my time with 'Black Mirror' is the sense of all the tongue and cheek, and very, very dark sense of comedy there, too.

That's one thing that attracts me to roles the most - how much potential there is for me to learn from it.

I think, having grown up with the Internet, things like trolls and the world of having an online life as well as a physical one, it's something I've grown up with.

I didn't think I ever knew how one managed to be so lucky as to work in this industry. It was a dream I was a little bit embarrassed by.

My dream really is just to keep working in film and in theatre.

Saoirse Ronan is just remarkable.

Hiding behind a tougher outer image as a teenager feels cooler and safer compared to admitting, perhaps, that you're the very opposite.

During teenager times, the feelings of longing is perhaps at its most strong and profound because everything feels multiplied by ten.

Particularly with Netflix, there are some series you just binge-watch. But I think with 'Black Mirror,' it's a joy to have some space between each one.

If I'm being honest, yes, I've always been into the underdog instead of the golden boy or guy with the easy life. It doesn't seem that dramatic from a storied perspective to play someone that has it easy or is incredibly normal.

I'm lucky enough to live in London, which is a boiling pot of every kind of language and background and demographic and sexuality and gender, and yet most of what we're seeing in the cinema is not reflective of that.

Sometimes I've made mistakes and not really listened to my instincts, and I've done a project, and I've been disappointed with the consequence, I think, as a consequence of not listening to whatever part of me it is that, at its base, is interested in telling interesting stories.

We have something very powerful in our hands with the Internet, and we still don't really understand fully its power.

I've always wanted to keep my foot in film as well as theatre and be working in both worlds.

At the end of the day, what you're able to work on is what comes by you, what sort of floats by you.

I'm a massive Roald Dahl fan. I grew up reading his work and see a recurring theme - I have continued to love stuff that mixes the gruesome with a sort of humour. I'm drawn to that in my work.
