There's probably a half-dozen movie actors I really like. But a lot of them just aren't that interesting.

There are many actors I admire, but I always look at people who have done a variety of roles - people such as Simon Russell Beale or Ralph Fiennes.

There are many actors I really like and whose work I admire.

I'm largely interested in people who are just great actors, and they're not necessarily hugely famous.

I love actors, number one. There's probably nobody that you could name that I don't like, depending on what it is they're in.

I always wanted to be an actor, but my top three favorite actors of all time are Al Pacino, James Dean and Philip Seymour Hoffman.

I remember my first actor that I really, really fell in love with was Tom Hanks. I suppose when I was growing up and getting more serious about acting, at that point, he was the biggest actor in the world.

Dustin Hoffman was the greatest. He had so much information to give and he mesmerized me. He really feels for actors who are just starting out and remembers his early days like they were yesterday.

Everybody who is an actor has been acting since they were three.
