The Role Of My Agent Has Just Been To Get Me In The Room. If I Can Get In The Room - Say The Character Is Just A Charming Man Who Lives Next Door - Then I'll Walk In There And Be As Charming As I Can And They Will Think To Themselves, 'i Don't See Why We Can't Cast Him.

If You Go To Africa And You're White, You're Probably Not Going To Get That Much Work Either. But The Fact Is That There Is A Longer History Of Black Integration In The U.s. I Don't Have Any Resentment About This: I Did The Maths, Calculated It Against My Ambition And Decided To Leave England.
