I was in a production of 'Macbeth.'
From Richard C. Armitage
Being thought of as sexy makes one employable, but it's not going to last forever, so I try not to think about it. It's like something that exists outside of me.
In school, I was a beanpole with a nose I hadn't grown into.
I can't bear shopping. I can choose clothes for my characters, but not for myself. I've got no dress sense. Or I've lost it.
I can work hard and be disciplined like a soldier, but I could never reach their level of fitness.
I've become one of those actors who find it difficult to say 'no' when things are offered.
I think if I had come out of drama school and been an instant Hollywood superstar, I would be taking long, leisurely holidays.
The interesting roles have only come since I got into my 30s. But I didn't know that was going to happen.
I did quite a lot of menial jobs. I was a waiter, an inventory clerk touring round properties listing cups and saucers, and a laserquest marshal.
