David Fincher is one of the best directors I know, so I'm really curious to see it. Really curious, and I want to hear Daniel have the Swedish accent.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I phoned Joe Roth, who was head of the studio at the time, and told him how beautiful the film was, and that I was fully ready to support it, that Michael's work was wonderful and I imagined that Daniel would feel the same. He listened quietly and read between the lines.
I think every English actor is nervous of a Newcastle accent.
With most British actors, it's amazing. I think they start with the character on the outside and work in.
I would quite like to do a different accent or play something so different from myself because Olivia, the character I play in this film, is similar to me.
I think it's sort of a rite of passage for a British actor to try and get the American accent and have a good crack at doing that.
I think Chris Weitz is an amazing director, and his sensibility - I wouldn't even know how to articulate it - it's just, he's a very sensitive, interesting guy.
Most of the great directors I've worked with - De Palma, Spike Lee - like rehearsals.
David Ayer is one of the best directors I've ever worked with. He's a true man's man.
I love the Scottish accent; it is very sexy.
I had read the novel and I had heard David Lean was going to direct it - and it came as a surprise to me because American actors, if given the chance, can do style as well as anybody and speak as well as anybody.
