Mark Strong's quotes

  • [on Green Lantern (2011)]: I had to imbue in Sinestro an evil feeling, so the audience could take that journey into what might be in store for them. That's why Sinestro had to have a presence and a potential to be a badass.
  • I'm not convinced that this business runs on talent, otherwise why would there be so much crap on the box?
  • (On his immigrant parents) They came to England in search of the Swinging Sixties, but they didn't find them.
  • (On Our Friends in the North (1996) I think Nicky was the writer's political side, Geordie was his sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll side, and Tosker was his Newcastle side.
  • It's great. You don't have to play lovers anymore: Ferdinands and Sebastians at the RSC, swanning around and spouting poetry. It was a great day for me when my hair fell out.
