“Even though I don't necessarily believe in everything that's supernatural, I like being scared and I like things that are suspenseful.”
“I was given a lot of homework: I had to practise ironing as a synth, practise washing up as a synth, cooking a meal as a synth. It's definitely the most prep I've had to do for a role.”
“I hate the idea that people should listen to what actors have to say on certain issues more than anyone else. Actors have no more right to be heard than anyone.”
“AI - not so some kind of far-off thing. It's part of our lives now, from your phone to everything you do. It makes our lives easier in a lot of ways.”
“I know we've had AI films, but they've been quite specific in their scope. The scope of 'Humans' is a world set up where this technology is universally accepted. I haven't seen anything that's dealt with it in that multi-layered, every-layer-of-society way.”
“I ended up doing a local AmDram musical when I was nine or so. We had to sing and dance and act. It was probably terrible, but I loved it.”
“Growing up, I never saw any Asian faces on TV, so it didn't feel like a viable option.”
“My parents are wonderful, practical, sensible people, and the expectation was that I would study something academic.”
“I'm quite a rational person. I'm not very superstitious, but I really do enjoy horror as a genre.”
“It's really rare in TV not to think, 'Well, I've seen a version of this before.'”
