IT HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST
EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCES IN MY
LIFE.
LIFE. IT’S AN INDELIBLE CHARACTER THAT
HAS HAD AN IMPACT ON SO MANY
PEOPLE WORLDWIDE, AND ESPECIALLY
THE ONES SITTING RIGHT IN FRONT
OF YOU.
OF YOU. >> HOW DID THIS CHARACTER IN
THIS SHOW KIND OF CHANGE THE
TRAJECTORY OF YOUR LIFE, DO YOU
THINK?
THINK? >> WELL, I’VE SAID IT BEFORE,
BUT, YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A TIME
ABOUT SIX YEARS AGO WHERE I
NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE PLAYING
THE LEADING MAN IN A SERIES, AND
IT ENDED UP COMING TO FRUITION
WITH A CHARACTER THAT, YOU KNOW,
HAD A VERY VERY COMPLICATED
LIFE, A TRAGIC LIFE, AND LONELY
LIFE, ALIENATED AND STILL WANTED
TO DO EVERYTHING HE COULD TO
SAVE THE WORLD, AND A PART OF
THAT KIND OF RESILIENCE HAS
FOUND ITS WAY INTO ME.
>> HAS IT?
>> YEAH, I THINK SO.
>> I KNOW IT CHANGED THE WAY YOU
LIVE YOUR LIFE IN OTHER WAYS.
YOU PLAY A HACKER ON THIS SHOW,
AND I MEAN, PEOPLE ALWAYS HEAR
LIKE, OH, EVERYONE CAN HEAR YOU,
THEY’RE LISTENING ON YOUR
COMPUTER, HAVE YOU LITERALLY
CHANGED THE WAY YOU LIVE YOUR
LIFE WHEN IT COMES TO THOSE
KINDS OF THINGS?
>> YEAH, I MEAN, I LOVE A
CERTAIN AMOUNT OF ANONYMITY WITH
MY LIFE.
MY LIFE. I TRY TO PROTECT THAT AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE, AND PERHAPS, YOU KNOW,
I MIGHT GO OVERBOARD BY TAPING
UP EVERY SCREEN.
>> DO YOU TAPE THEM UP?
>> YEAH, I TRY TO USE LAND LINES
AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, PAY PHONES.
>> BECAUSE THEY MAY BE
LISTENING.
LISTENING. >> I’M AS CONCERNED AS ANYBODY
ELSE THESE DAYS.
>> CONGRATS ON THE FINAL SEASON
OF THIS, I HEAR IT’S INCREDIBLE,
BUT I CAN’T HELP REMEMBERING THE
LAST TIME YOU WERE HERE, YOU SAT
HERE WITH ME, AND IT WAS YOU AND
THE CAST OF BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY,
AND I REMEMBER YOU WERE SAYING,
I HOPE THEY LIKE IT, LIKE I HOPE
THEY LIKE IT.
LOOK AT US SITTING HERE TODAY.

I KNOW YOU HAVE SAT WITH THIS
FOR A WHILE, BUT HOW DID THAT
ROLE KIND OF CHANGE THE WAY YOUR
CAREER AND LIFE HAS GONE.
>> WELL, I MEAN, TO GO FROM
ELLIOT WHO IS, YOU KNOW, SOMEONE
WHO HAS A VERY HARD TIME
STEPPING OUT IN THE WORLD, AND
PLAYING FREDDIE WHO CAN GET UP
ON STAGE, AND MOVE THOUSANDS, IF
NOT MILLIONS WAS A LEAP, AND IT
WAS NICE TO PLAY TWO DIFFERENT
PEOPLE WHO WERE JUST, ONE WAS AN
EXTREME EXTROVERT AND INTROVERT,
AT THE SAME TIME, THEY BOTH
SHARED THIS LONELINESS, AND I
THINK IT’S SOMETHING THAT I
THINK EVERYONE COULD SYMPATHIZE
AND EMPATHIZE WITH, AND THOSE
ARE CHARACTERS I LOOK FOR, VERY
VERY COMPLICATED CHARACTERS AND
TO HAVE THAT AWARD HAS BEEN JUST
AN EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCE, ONE
THAT I THINK ABOUT EVERY DAY OF
MY LIFE.
MY LIFE. >> I BET YOU AND, I REMEMBER YOU
DID ALL YOUR THANK YOUS, YOU
THANKED YOUR MOM WHO I WAS
THINKING I KNOW YOU BOTH WERE
FROM EGYPT.
FROM EGYPT. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW SHE WAS
EXPLODING, AND YOU THANKED YOUR
GIRL, AND EVERY TIME I SEE A
PICTURE OF YOU TWO, WHICH ISN’T
OFTEN, YOU AND LUCY, YOU ARE SO
CUTE TOGETHER IS LIFE GOING WELL
WITH HER?
WITH HER? >> LIFE IS GOING WELL WITH MOM,
LIFE IS WELL WITH LUCY.
ALL IS WELL.

WRAPPING UP YOUR TELEVISION
SHOW, WHEN YOU’RE LOOKING FOR
THE NEXT THING, HOW HIGH IS THE
BAR NOW OR I KNOW YOU’VE GOT A
JAMES BOND GIG THAT’S COMING UP,

>> YEAH, IT’S EXTRAORDINARY, ONE
DOOR KEEPS OPENING UP THE NEXT
AND THE NEXT, AND YOU THINK
YOU’RE GOING TO HIT A WALL ONE
DAY, BUT THINGS SEEM TO BE GOING
MY WAY.
MY WAY. IT’S VERY FORTUNATE.
I LIKE TO THINK THAT I WORK
PRETTY HARD AND TO SEE IT
REWARDED IS A PHENOMENAL
EXPERIENCE, BOND CHSWAS
