Nic Hoult is just such a brilliant actor.
Listen, I like great actors. You can be a movie star without being a great actor - this has been proved several times - and I like my casts to have great actors. Acting is more important to me than being a star.
The big gap between the ability of actors is confidence.
I don't think many actors are that good, to be honest. I certainly don't think I am.
I could do Daniel Day-Lewis's job as well as him.
It's no accident that Tony Hopkins is a wonderful film actor.
There is nothing like a 'born actor.' It's all about honing the skills.
Allison Janney is the best actor on the series.Allison is one of the few actors I ever worked with who is incapable of hitting a false note.
When I hire actors I believe in their abilities.
If there is a snobbery, then they haven't been on set to see how a show like 'EastEnders' works. Because I know for a fact that some of my favourite actors are still not capable of doing what these guys do.
I try to get the best performance an actor can give.
I think Russell Crowe is a brilliant actor.
A lot of actors, we aren't that special; you get a well-written scene, and it's virtually actor-proof.
I believe every actor gets some chance or the other to show his capability.
John Goodman is more that just a big guy, he's a wonderful actor.
For any actor, voice is his strength.
Jeremy Renner is an incredible actor.
Bart The Bear was fantastic to work with. Absolutely brilliant and so, so good. The things that that bear could do to order! He was one of the best actors I've ever worked with.
I would not be allowed to be in the web series without playing 'Halo.' I'm awful, by the way. I'm much better at the live action version.
I do believe all actors are smart.
