Magic Is At The Core Of Myths.

I Personally Just Want To Do As Many Different Things As I Can Do, Whether It's Comedy, Drama, Science Fiction, Horror, Narrator... You've Got A Documentary, I've Got A Voice. Animated Films. Big Films, Small Films.

As Much As "the Lobster" Feels Like A World We Recognize But Not The World We Live In, It's All Drawn In An Allegorical Way From All The Systems That Exist.

When I Read The Script It Was Extraordinary And To Work With Yorgos [lanthimos] Again Was Amazing.

Anything That's Different From Your Own Realm Of Experience As A Human Being, Whether It's Driving A Car Or A Boat, Or Using Guns, Anything That Separates You From Yourself And Leads You More Towards This Character's Existence Is A Big Help.

Myself And Yorgos Lanthimos, We Spoke A Little Bit And I Was At A Certain Body Weight That I Was Closer To Making A Statement Or Defining The Character Physically By Losing Weight. There Was No Justification For Him To Be Emaciated, But I Thought, Say I Was 165, I Thought What If I Went Down To 155 And Have Him Rail-thin? And Yorgos Was Like, "well, If He's Very Thin I Think Maybe It Will Speak To Some Kind Of Psychological Trouble That We Want To Stay Away From," And I Was Like, "f - -, You're Right."
