What last made you cry?
The taxman. Other than that? Playing Victor Von Frankenstein, when I’d just given life to my creation. Dramatically speaking, giving birth made me cry.
What keeps you up in the middle of the night?
Jet lag. But really the only thing that keeps me up at the moment is being a dad and working as much as I do. I don’t get a chance to see my pals and I feel really bad and guilty about that.
What’s the funniest thing you’ve read about yourself?
That my middle name is Andrew, which it’s not. And that I’m from Port Glasgow, which I’m not. I don’t have a middle name. If I had to take one, I’d like something Scottish like Hamish or Cameron.
What’s been your greatest mistake?
Not going to Prince’s after-show party at the Oscars.
What did you buy with your first pay cheque?
A Piaggio Vespa that was Racing Green with a tan leather seat. Vespas may be a lot of style over substance but they have an excellent amount of storage. You can get four or five bags of shopping between your legs.
What would you eat for your last supper?
Curry. Probably my own variation on karahi chicken. I’m not a bad curry cook and I’ve got some decent curry books. I’d be sharing it with my family.
What could you not live without?
My motorbike — a 2010 Honda Hornet. I love how much it shrinks London and helps with getting around.
What’s your desert island boxset?
The West Wing — it has some of the best writing ever. My favourite actor constantly changes through the seven seasons, but Martin Sheen is just incredible.
What’s your karaoke song?
‘Copacabana’. I know all the words. I learned them in school. It’s a daft, daft song but it’s got a story. I’d love to do it as a duet with Nicholas Hoult.
What’s been your biggest fashion mistake?
Going through a waistcoat phase while I was at secondary school. It was a brave move in my neighbourhood. I’ve only done it once on the red carpet. Never again.
