Zitat des Tages von Nikolaj Coster-Waldau:
Usually, on a show like 'Game of Thrones,' you don't have much time to rehearse; a lot of the sets are not available.
I don't necessarily enjoy being at the gym. It's something I have to do, more than something I look forward to doing. But it does enable me to do fun things.
There's a recent film, the Swedish movie 'Force Majeure.' I just thought it was brilliant.
I did a network show in the U.S. before, and I loved it, but you have eight days to shoot an episode, and it's just a ridiculous pace.
I work a lot abroad and have the most wonderful family and kids, but being away, you do miss out sometimes. I really hope I won't regret the choices in the future.
What I love about acting is that you are exposed to so many different things. Horse-riding, sailing, travelling to amazing places.
I like to be comfortable.
I can't imagine life without my wife, but I don't think you should get a prize for staying together a long time.
Abusive relationships go on and on. You're in it for so long that it can almost be impossible to see it for what it is. That just becomes your life. We get used to and adapt.
It's beautiful being out in the wild.
A villain to me is someone who actively seeks to hurt someone or does things for his own gain.
I'm a fan of Ed Norton.
All actors tend to be the same messed-up people.
I've never understood why you would turn down a great role.
I know nothing more annoying when people I don't know jump to conclusions on my person based on nothing but gossip or speculation.
I think advice is cheap. You can only really learn by doing and making mistakes.
Fart jokes still work for me.
I haven't really got any hidden talents.
I do remember a teacher telling me when I was about ten that I was really good at acting. I was so proud, even though I am sure he said that to all of us in the class.
As an actor, secrets and obstacles fuel the character.
Some of the stuff in Season 3 on 'Game of Thrones' - the amount of mud I had to eat, not intentionally but by accident - was pretty tough.
I started at drama school at 18.
Horrible things happen all our lives; we all experience loss and death and trauma. Usually, most people, I think, we just get on with it. We don't have a whole soliloquy in the middle of something.
For my kids, it's just weird to see your dad pretend to be someone else. It's weird to see your father make out with another woman. It's not cool.
Everyone's expectation of New York is so big, and then you go, 'Oh, it really is like no other place on Earth!'
Still, to this day, I can't run on the treadmill. Why not just run outside? I never understood it.
You can be as good an actor as you want but, if your accent is too strong, it's going to limit you.
I couldn't pick up a sword and go fight anyone, let me put it that way. It's choreography and it's acting. The best sword fights you see look amazing, but it's the acting that sells it more than anything.
It's okay for a guy to be a baddie, but a woman? No, we can't deal with that.
Most people can relate to that whole annoying thing when people think they know who you are.
I think the core of Jaime Lannister is actually that final line in the pilot when he says, 'The things I do for love.' He might do horrible things - and they are truly, some of them, horrific. There's no excuses. But he does it out of what he sees as a necessity, out of love.
I'm very good when people dress me. But I find it difficult to spend a lot of money on clothes.
My mum was a librarian, and my dad worked in Greenland.
My ambition has always been to work with English and American actors and directors. Those were the movies that I was watching when I was growing up.
I'm in a monogamous relationship and have been for many, many years. I think it's a choice. I don't think you can generalize, though, and what works for me may not work for other people, but I don't think everybody cheats. We're all different.
I was 15 or 16 when I first saw 'Once Upon A Time In America,' so I was quite young, but I was completely blown away.
