- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Dublin's a great place. It really is. It's a great place. And Ireland, especially, is a great place. I've realized that growing up more. I'm loving my country more as I'm getting older.

Boxing isn't a career. Acting is it for me. But they're both very therapeutic.

- Losing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
After everything I've been through - the foster care, the losing my parents and stuff like that, I was never one to kind of go, 'I'm gonna just not try.' I used it all as ammunition.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

All my foster homes were very good to me. But it's still not a very nice experience. It's only when you're older, you realise: we were on our own in there. As kids, you don't know what's happening. You're here. Then you're in the next house. But the families were all very good to us.

I just think the more you're in front of camera, the better: my main aim is just to tell the truth, be natural, and believe in what I'm doing, and hopefully that comes across as a rawness.
- Game
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think you ever really get used to it, do you? There's always another little level of shock in it and of being starstruck at the people you meet. And that's the beauty of it: you're always fascinated, because it's not a normal thing to do, is it, this acting game?

- Never
- |

I'm always in touch with where I'm from.
- Big

- Nov 07, 2020
I want stories that tackle things.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
