As an actor I think youre always going to ride a fine line between doing something because you believe its the right thing to do, and guessing what the public wants to see. For politicians it must be the same, if not more so. You have to be quite vigilant with yourself and question why youre doing certain things as well as whats behind all that. Because otherwise, you can find yourself having made choices for the wrong reasons. And suddenly youre a completely different person than the one you thought you were a year earlier.

There is an element of performance to leadership, because youre on public display, and I suppose I must be attracted to that. Although, probably more than the leadership, Im more attracted to characters who are quite extreme, and could be considered borderline monsters. Its something you can get your teeth into, and I find the psychology fascinating. Its interesting that in searching for monsters to play, you often end up playing leaders.
