On why he took the role:
I was a fan of the X-Men films, comics and cartoons when I was growing up. That was an appeal and obviously working with Matthew. The whole cast he assembled was fantastic. Beast is an interesting character that counterbalances his exterior with his interior - and struggles to deal with who he becomes.
On his character's journey in the film:
I have massively oversized shoes. You do get to see my feet - I have a flexible big toe for hanging and grabbing. He's a young scientist, he's very talented and comes up with great inventions. Then he gets picked up by Xavier and Erik and later on an experiment goes horribly wrong and his whole world crumbles around him. For this film it's an unintentional transformation. The way I see it, he's not too pleased with the way it's gone. He's slightly embarrassed and a little bit grumpy about the whole situation.
