Personal Quote:

I would like to break out of this "dark, brooding" image, cause I'm actually not like that at all. In Ireland, brooding is a term we use for hens. A brooding hen is supposed to lay eggs. Everytime somebody says "He's dark and brooding" I think: "He's about to lay an egg". See more »

Trivia:

Started acting at the age of 29 and he went to America for the first time when he was 37. See more »
