“I've been on sets where I broke my ankle on a television show doing a stunt playing Arthur in 'Camelot.' That was because it was really rushed, and it hadn't been thought through properly.”
“I feel responsible for certain fans, but I've never said I'm a role model.”
“When I was 16, I used to hang out at the Nambucca pub in North London and see The Libertines play live.”
“I think I'm always drawn to a good story.”
“I'm nervous when taking part in any movie.”
“Euro Disney is not my vibe. I can't really deal with Disney, man. It's not my thing.”
“People don't get it; they think I'm rich. I'm not! I have no money.”
“Being on a movie set is wonderful experience, but it's a bubble - it isn't real life.”
“Particularly for English people, Shakespeare is always at the forefront of both drama and the English language. He's always been there. I can't remember starting school and not learning about him.”
“I always had the idea that I wanted to perform. I love being the center of attention - and I always love talking about myself.”
“Growing up in England, I was constantly surrounded by the Arthurian legend.”
“My essentials are skinny jeans, loose-fitting tees, big jumpers, and the leather jacket. Everything is black or blue - I don't own anything colorful.”

“I want to do more movies. I feel like it's a totally different skill set than there is to theater. It's much more internal.”
“I'm a horrible romantic!”
“I'm hardly the sexiest man in the world. I'm a bit of a geek.”
“I went to boarding school in the country, so there's no real differentiation between family and friends. I went there from when I was 8 until I was 17 - it was insane. If you earn my friendship, you are my family, and I'll do anything for you.”
“I'm an extrovert, I like to gesticulate and talk loud and stuff, and the theater is easy for me.”
“I tend to thrive on being misquoted. It's the only way I sound good.”
“I was obsessed with girls when I was 13 years old; I wasn't really into books.”
