Danny Boyle has been a huge, has had a huge effect on me. His movies, early movies like Trainspotting and those movies. So I've always loved the energies of those movies.

So that's what I've always loved about watching movies myself.

A lot of times when I'm on camera, I'm playing characters that are more like myself, and I don't get to do a lot of real character work.
