I think what we forget is that everybody loses when we keep unnecessary privilege. The cost to society overall is much greater.

I came to the States less to find fortune and fame and more to kind of have a life experience of seeing something new.

I feel like within each of us is a million different people that we could reveal and that we can be sometimes... And for me, the process of acting isn't so much about finding the person outside of myself and mimicking them but, rather, releasing parts of myself and adding them to the character.

Oakland's got a lot of character.

I think what often happens when people leave their spouse for someone else is they tend to go for the opposite of what they already have.

Elizabeth Moss may very well be one of the best actresses I've had the privilege of standing opposite and sharing lines with.

It's hard for men sometimes to talk about feminism, just as it's hard for people who aren't from ethnic minorities to talk about racial prejudice. It's a difficult conversation to have, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have it.

As a younger man, I thought the best thing art could do was to challenge people's mindsets, and I still do, but I've come round to the value of entertainment. A show like 'The Interceptor,' which gives the audience that release, after a hard day, of just sitting down and enjoying themselves - that adds value to lives, too.

Television is obviously changing; the way we consume media is changing, so I think it's natural that we are going to try different styles.

I think when YouTube first came out, everyone was thinking people were just going to watch five-minute shows from now on and that people didn't have the patience anymore to watch longer programmes. But instead, everyone is binge watching and consuming ten-hour programmes and box sets of shows, so it is really interesting.
