He talks to Akram about his early days acting in theatre repertory where he learned how physicality connects with the body’s emotional center and about the intricate technique of performance capture - the egalitarian 21st-century actor's tool where any actor can play anything.
He also discusses the freedoms that great movie directors like Peter Jackson and Mike Leigh have given him as an actor, and remembers his first experiences directing films himself.
