“I'm still at the beginning of my career. It's all a little new, and I'm still learning as I go.”
Learning“Lord of the Rings was my first experience making movies and at the time, I had no ideas how movies were done. I thought that's the way they're done, so in a way, I had nothing to compare it to.”
Experience“I'm still at the beginning of my career. It's all a little new, and I'm still learning as I go.”
Learning“There's a difference between a failure and a fiasco... a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.”
Failure“I got to work with one of my heroes, Johnny Depp, and to see how he goes about business, which was really inspiring for me at this stage in my career.”
Business“I missed my home - like the physicality of my home, I missed my friends and my family mostly and just hanging out and being in your home country - culturally it feels right and that is what I miss.”
Family“Whatever happens in life is fine - just trust in that.”
Trust“People come into your life and people leave it... you just have to trust that life has a road mapped out for you.”
Trust“The truth is - I found myself doing these huge action-adventure movies, and um, and which are cool man. And I really love doing them. And thankfully I haven't had too much dialogue, because if I had I would have really made a mess of it. You know what I mean?”
Cool“Lord of the Rings was my first experience making movies and at the time, I had no ideas how movies were done. I thought that's the way they're done, so in a way, I had nothing to compare it to.”
Experience“Yeah, I mean the material, directors, the other cast, and if you think you can do something with the character then you do it and go from there. I am looking forward to doing some smaller movies.”
Movies“I'm trying to mix the cool, independent stuff with the big stuff, but it's been difficult finding the right roles. It's been an interesting ride as far as my career pendulum is concerned.”
Cool“Failure is simply the non-presence of success. But a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.”
Failure“I did send a girl a plane ticket asking her for a visit, I guess that's quite romantic.”
Romantic“I crave working on those small independent movies because I love going to see those myself.”
Movies“I've done movies with a sword before. But I haven't really been given the full responsibility of something like a Ridley Scott film.”
Movies“I wondered how they would top the Pirates and skeletons and moonlight, because that's a pretty cool concept.”
Cool“When you start falling for somebody and you can't stop thinking about when you're going to see them again, I love that. Women are beautiful. They deserve to be cherished and respected.”
Love“I got to dress up in funny clothes and run around New Zealand with a bow and arrow for 18 months, how bad could that be?”
Funny“Elves are cool, man.”
Cool“Movies like that aren't about the visual effects and explosions. They're human stories about family, about life, about death.”
Death“I'm so happy to have been a part of that process and I would go straight back into the desert in a ton of chain mail for Ridley any day of the week. He's an amazing director and I can't wait to see the long version.”
