Theo James Quotes - BrainyQuote

If you don't finish a day of stunts with a lot of bruises, you feel like you haven't done it right.

We're in a world where masculinity, especially with these big spectacle movies, is often pushed by rippling six packs and forcing an image down someone's throat trying to prove masculinity. Whereas I think true masculinity comes from having a strong sense of self. Theo James

Strong, Big, I Think

Love, Break, Everybody

People say that New Yorkers aren't friendly, but I think they're more friendly than Londoners. Here there is a front-footed nature of Americans. You can go out on a night out and meet 10 random people and stay in touch with them, whereas that's not going to happen in the same way in London. Theo James

London, Here, I Think

I saw 'Captain America' in 3D. It's cool. I liked the beginning. It's a really good setup. Theo James

New, Interesting, Kind

One of my fears would be getting torn apart by a great white shark. I love the ocean, but I always have this deep fear of getting torn apart by a great whitey. Theo James

Love, Shark, Always

I don't think I believe in ghosts, per se. But, my nearest experience was when I went on a weekend away and was in a bar in England, years ago, with an ex-girlfriend. I heard this scratching. I was about to go to bed and I was thinking, 'It's an old ghost.' I could hear this noise, but I couldn't work out where it was coming from. Theo James

Weekend, Bed, Away

New York cops are very specific in terms of the way they talk and the way they handle themselves. All these cliches that, as an Englishman, I thought were from a bygone era or were a bit of poetic license with cop shows - the more you hang out with them, the more you realize how real that jargon is. Theo James

Hang, Cops, Very

What I like about the 'Underworld' thing is that it's a mix of cool genres, as well as creating its own message. Theo James

I think you can tell when a New York show isn't shot in the city. It's so iconic and has such a specific energy. Theo James

In Britain, you do your job. When you do an American TV show, there is a sense of being one with the crew, and there is a leadership element, which was a learning curve for me because it is very different culturally. In Britain, you just do it, leave and say, 'Thanks.' Theo James

Very, TV, Britain

I have the same friends I've had for years and the same family. Unless you love rock n' roll and Hollywood parties and having your photo taken, I don't think necessarily things need to change too much. Theo James

Love, Hollywood, Roll

Myself, Question, Profession

I was thinking recently, I've always loved the ocean. If I could do it all again, I might do an oceanography degree. You can do ocean archaeology, and I thought that might be fascinating to do - man-made structures, where the sea has risen above the structures. Theo James

Sea, Thinking, Thought

I always think that you finish one movie, you start a new one, and you think, 'OK. I did that last one. Now I've learned. I know how this works.' Then by the end of the movie, you think, 'No, I don't, really.' Theo James

New, Think, Always

'Divergent' is a story about people who don't fit into a category - that is a big part of the message - but it's also about conformity and forcing people into these simple archetypes. At the end of the day, humans don't exist like that. We're multifaceted. Theo James

Big, Part, Big Part

It's frustrating we still don't see more movies featuring strong women. Theo James

Movies, See, Still
