I was lightweight - that was the whole point of me
I want to be like Matt Damon and do a hugely successful thinking-man's action franchise like Bourne.
I wanted to be a doctor at one point and I also wanted to be a pilot. I think if you grow up in a dodgy area, reality often beats down those ambitions as you get older. But with me that never really happened.
