for "Edge of Tomorrow."
Quite intense.
- Can you show me a move from Krav Maga?
- Want me to show you a move?
- You can grab someone by the back of their head
and sort or knead them repeatedly
in the privates. Does some damage.

- Mary Poppins? You gotta practice your turn-out, like this.
See? - Is that right?
- It's quite hard for someone as un-flexible as me.
- Oh see, this what people in fashion do.
They tend to sort of do stuff like this.
- [Interviewer] With Mary Poppins, how did you feel
on your first day of shooting?
- Terrified.
- [Interviewer] Did you watch the original in preparation?
- I did not, so as not to get more terrified.
- [Interviewer] Now you're not on social media.

at the "Devil Wears Prada" premiere.
My dress was all wrinkly and it was a mistake.
- [Interviewer] Can you name the best designer
who has ever lived?
- Oh, McQueen! - Good choice!
- McQueen, McQueen, do you think McQueen
would like me to wear this hat,
with one of his dresses? - Oh totally --
It's equestrian chic.
