People tell me I look mournful. They say, 'Cheer up, Dan, it's not that bad!' Sometimes I just look into space, which freaks people out. If I was ever required to do anything other than look haunted, I could. I'm a happy person.
I didn't have that normal teenage period when you build up your friends in your area and you have a social circle.
I love Steve Carell and Will Ferrell - they're my heroes.
It's mainly about working hard and proving to people you're serious about it, and stretching yourself and learning. The mistake a lot of actors make, particularly young ones, is allowing themselves to feel that they're the finished articles, the bee's knees, and it's not true.
I used to joke I was a point-and-click actor. My whole process has been about trusting your instincts and hitting your mark.
I'm not clean or even vaguely pleasant to be around in a domestic situation.
