My intentions as an actor are always to make whatever I'm doing work.
I look for the piece to be good as a whole and then, hopefully, to have
something good for myself as an actor. I've always been intent on
giving to both the project and myself.
I didn't so much learn how to act at the London Academy as I did about
speech, movement and how to relax. Their attitude was that the acting
was basically up to you.
I don't think I have a particular style or acting technique. What I
think I have is the ability to fiddle with my own character and make it
do different things.
[on the critical and commercial failure of Howard the Duck (1986)] There's no point in worrying what you've just done. What you've done is done. I'm proud of it and I'm happy with my part in it. Onto the next.
