QUOTES by Eddie Redmayne

In England, we have this saying about Marmite: people either love it or hate it. That's like a lot of the movie work I've done. People either find it repulsive or find it really interesting and get engaged in it.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
It can be a miserable profession, acting, because you always want what you can't have.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
'Animal Ark', was when I was fourteen years old, and it was an ITV children's program, and I did an episode called, 'Bunnies in the Bathroom.' And I'm not sure if it was my finest hour.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
What I love about acting is trying things and screwing up, then trying again, all in this protected little bubble. That's living the dream.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I draw and play the piano badly. But when I'm doing those things, I'm concentrating so hard there's no room for worry. I find that onstage, too.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
My dad works in finance, so he kept giving me the stats: only one in a hundred actors makes it. He'd ask, 'Have you thought about producing?'
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Our dream as actors is to tell interesting stories about interesting people.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I'm one of those people, when I see a film, I believe it to be true. You know, sort of the authenticity of the camera and seeing things on a screen.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
When I read 'Fantastic Beasts,' the world that J. K. Rowling has created is so wonderful.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
It feels like a simple human right to be able to be yourself, and yet, what trans people have to go through in order to get to there, it can be so complicated.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I try genuinely, when I'm playing a character, to not judge them and just to inhabit someone as how one sees them. That being said, you also want to make sure that you don't blur the edges of people too much because humans are naughty and complicated beings.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
The question of what it is to live an 'authentic life', that's a complicated one.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
That's a lovely starting point for me as an actor: the question of what will we - or can we - do with this lot of years with which we're blessed? More than my other films, 'The Danish Girl' is about the gigantic risks involved in being true to one's self.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
The thing about motor neuron disease, once a muscle stops working, it doesn't start again.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
A movie star is someone who has to open a film to gazillions of dollars. I'm just trying to pay my mortgage.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I've worked with some actors who have such thick skins and think they are so extraordinary. I'll think, 'Have you stopped learning?' They stop listening to directors or other actors and do the same thing again and again.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
The problem with motor neurone disease is they don't know when it starts. People go into hospital having fallen but get wrapped up and sent away, unless they're seen by an incredibly astute doctor. It is only when several things begin to go wrong that it'll be diagnosed.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
If you are playing someone living, it is a different type of judgment. However much work you do, it is not a documentary. There will be things you can't get right, and ultimately, you have to take a leap because - you weren't there.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
What is important is for me to do my best work on camera. The camera is inches away from you and sees every micromovement of every muscle of your eye. And if you're not relaxed, the camera sees it.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I've never been someone that was sort of blessed with an innate talent of just being able to do things. I had to work at it and learn from mistakes.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Actors who perhaps are super-confident and have absolute belief in themselves I always admire, because I can't really be like that. Because you never know what's right: what you feel inside versus what is portrayed.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I feel like J. K. Rowling's world is one that is owned by everyone in some ways. People have grown up with it and have such a sense of that universe that there's something kind of wonderful seeing everyone get involved.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
There is a certain amount of commerce in the film industry in as much as you have value, and for a moment, your value goes up, then it all disappears again.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
That's the reality of my life - I do normal things and then get to go to film festivals and wear borrowed clothes and turn up at premieres and talk about things I am passionate about. But then you click back to normality and your family and friends.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
For a year after I left Cambridge, I had an agent, and I was working in a pub and doing waitering. But I could stay at home rent-free.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Actors are actors, and there should be a complete fluidity for anyone to play anything.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I'm by nature someone that quite likes to understand how things are working, likes some sense of structure, and I've fallen into the worst possible trade for that.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
The percentage of actors employed is pretty small, and if you're lucky enough to have a good run at it, you do have a sense of responsibility.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I find in film acting that however many years you have done it for, you can feel totally relaxed and at ease with the people around you, absolutely wonderful, then roll camera and a little part of you goes, 'Ugh'. It is learning how to manage that.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I am fascinated by Omega's history. Particularly the First World War stuff, when they made watches for the flying corps, and the NASA side of it.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Going to the Oscars is always the most sensory overload and a huge amount of fun.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
There's been a huge history of cisgender success on the back of trans stories, which is something I'm deeply aware of. My take on it, I suppose, was that I do think actors should be able to play anything.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
There's something scary about acting always, because basically you do all this work in a vacuum, and then suddenly there's a lot of money spent making a film, and there's suddenly a camera here, going, 'Right? What are you gonna do?'
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Filming is about continuing to be alert and to think, and I find it quite exhausting.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I never really committed to being an actor. It never felt like it would be possible, I guess.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
I come home from trying to pretend to know about astronomy and physics all day and turn on 'The Real Housewives'.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
If your dream is to tell stories, interesting stories, play interesting people, that's the bottom line. The people that I play have to be extraordinary.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
When you're doing a film that has so many effects, you do a lot of it on green screen, and you can't see what that world is.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
On so many levels, acting in film and TV is so much the sum of its parts, and somewhere in there, there's an alchemical thing that makes something happen or not - that makes something connect or not. Now, of course you want to make work that people see, but the enjoyment I get out of acting is playing characters.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
As a runner on a film, you are the lowest of the low, and yet you have incredible access to everyone. I can totally imagine that for actors in the middle of a Hollywood bubble, all they really want is a sense of normality, and that gopher can be a tap for that.
Quote by -Eddie Redmayne
Two years ago, I shot 'Pillars of the Earth' in Budapest - it was a big part, but I had a lot of time to sit around and visit cafes.
