It's fair to say that, by 'X-Men 3,' Wolverine had gone a little soft, and I agree with them there. What fans love about Wolverine is his more uncompromising approach to life. He is who he is. He's not always a nice guy. He has got edge. He's an anti-hero. And, there's also a vulnerability in there. There is conflict and battles going on in there.

Actually, I graduated from university as a journalist.

Being on Broadway is the modern equivalent of being a monk. I sleep a lot, eat a lot, and rest a lot.

By nature I'm not a brooder.

Coming to terms with our true natures and who we really are has always been a fascination to humans. I know it fascinates me.

For me that's one of the great indulgences in life - a hand-tailored suit, and a great pair of handmade shoes.

I have two children and it's amazing how in tune they are with nature, with light, with smells, with time.

I just love making a fool out of myself. I made my living as a clown at kids' parties for about three years.

I like the Rolling Stones for karaoke. 'Sympathy For The Devil' is a great one.

I never wanted to go longer than five years off the stage. Not necessarily musicals, but just doing a play or something.

I would love to have a robot at home.

I'm a big goofball, you know. Don't tell anyone that, but I'm a big goofball. In Australia we call it a dag.

I'm always very nervous about the word 'dancer' next to my name because anyone who's really trained in dance will go, 'This guy's fudging so badly.'

I'm an actor who believes we all have triggers to any stage of emotion. It's not always easy to find but it's still there.

I'm not a loner at all.

I'm quite a competitive person, so I do quite like to win.

I've dreamt of being in a movie musical for a long time. For some reason I never even thought 'Les Mis' would be possible.

If I'm a lush at anything, it's food and drink. I'm not materialistic in any way, but I value food.

It dawned on me that acting was what I wanted to do with my life. Nothing had ever touched my heart like acting did.

My kids are not that interested in my movie career, by the way. My son, in particular, never talks about it. He just wants me as his dad.
