Favorite Quotes from Mark Strong

“I’m very organized and tidy in my home life and I generally do something myself rather than farm it out to somebody else. I don’t have an assistant or anything because I think I can do it myself.” – Mark Strong 

“I’ve put my friends and family through the wringer over the years, I have to say, by doing unspeakable things to people, not the least of which was pulling out poor George Clooney‘s fingernails in Syriana.” – Mark Strong 

“You need to try to find a way to humanize your villains. Genuine villains, in real life, still have mothers and daughters and sisters, and they fall in love. They don’t walk around with a big sign saying, “Bad guy,” on their head. They think they’re good guys. If you can play that, I think it makes it more interesting.” – Mark Strong 

“In the film industry you never really know if all the various ingredients will come together – sometimes they do, and sometimes they don’t. As an actor, you don’t have much control over those things. It’s a director’s medium in that sense. All you can really do is minimize the risks of being involved in something that might not work and look for something that also suits you.” – Mark Strong 

“I loved making The Imitation Game and it’s really gratifying to hear the audience’s response to the character that I play. It was just a little thing that I did because I really liked the film and I liked Benedict [Cumberbatch] and I loved Morten’s [director Morten Tyldum] previous film, Headhunters. For me, it was something I did thinking, “Wow, this is a lovely quality piece of work.” – Mark Strong

1. The Past

You sign for a sequel for everything these days, just in case, options. In the past, you avoided them like the plague because it meant somewhere down the road you couldn’t take a job because you had to do a sequel. Now it’s a feature of pretty much any feature you do.
