It Will Be Obvious To Anyone Who

I Had To Imagine Myself Into Certain Aspects Of [julian Assange] Character For Our Version Of Events. That Involved Extrapolating Based On Clues In His Biography, His Public Persona, Photographs, And Other Accounts Of Him By People Who Encountered Him During That Extraordinary Period From 2007 To 2010 That We Charted In The Film [the Fifth Estate]. So, It Involved A Lot Of Research But, Sadly, No Contact With The Man Himself.

There's No Shame In Stealing - Any Actor Who Says He Doesn't Is Lying. You Steal From Everything.

I Think Playing Any Iconic Role When You're Stepping Into Big Shoes, Into The Shadow Of People Who Have Come Before You And You Can't Process That.

My Assessment Of Julian Assange Is A Professional One, Really, Of What He's Managed To Achieve, And The Idea That He Came Up With, Which Set The World Alight And Continues To Inspire Others Like Snowden [nsa Leaker Edward Snowden], About The Secret Goings-on That Are Done In Our Name With Our Tax Dollars On Behalf Of Big Business Or Politics. He Launched The Revolutionary Idea That Citizens Can Start To Claim Back A Paradigm For Questioning Power Structures And Those In Authority Through An Anonymous, Whistle-blowing Website.

If I'd Had Fame Early On, I'd Have Been Able To Abuse It In The Way That A Young Man Should.
