Jamie's Interview in Glamour Poland March 2014 issue

I’m not afraid to play the role of Christian Grey.

Because I’m not like him. But I perfectly understand him. I never thought that he was a monster. He is simply woven from desires. As every one of us…

I hope that after the role of Grey…

Women will see as a real guy. Honestly? When I hear that I’m cute and charming, I feel like a French bulldog.

Paparazzi? I have no problem with them.

I’m 31 years old and not 21. I don't leave the clubs at 5am. Who would be interested in a nerd like me?

I am not fit for a star.

I despise extravagance. I don't fly a private plane. I don't have bodyguards and I don't buy branded stuff. I have a house, a family, two dogs, a watch.That's good enough for me…

My acting strategy…

This lack of methods. My colleagues in the industry spend half a year to rehab if they have to play an alcoholic. I go to plan, I say my lines and go back home to read a book. I don't understand people who do not read. What are they doing in their free time?

Success is my responsibility.

You can become conceited asshole or do something good for world. The latter being much more difficult.

I do not like to define people.

I don't try to be cool or trendy. I am individualist. Most in life I want to be myself.
