Elliot Knight

A role I grew up with and always loved was James Bond. I'd even say, in some ways, that he served as a creative role model for me as a kid in terms of roles I would want to play. I watched all of the movies growing up with my dad, so to be Bond himself would, without a doubt, be my dream role.

Fairy tales were great because they provided a no-limits playground for my imagination, and growing up, there's nothing more exciting.

You are alive, but you should enjoy that while you can. I try to keep that same life philosophy of just enjoying the moments that come my way and not be the one that gets in my own way from making the most of the opportunities that I have.

By Any Means' follows a team of behind-the-scenes crime-prevention team - not police. They basically go to the areas of crime where the police can't touch and organised crime fighting units can't go to - in the public eye - to bring about real justice, treading the line between 'true' justice and what the law says is justice.

I was the kid who was sat in his room, trying to move objects across the room with my eyes or my mind.

I look completely different from how I did in 'Sinbad,' and it's nice to be myself.

In Malta, it's so hot, you wouldn't believe.

The only thing that made its way to actually happen for me was acting. I love it, and I love being on set. I love being in rehearsal for things and telling stories. It's what I feel I am supposed to be doing.

My parents made every effort to encourage me to pursue anything in life that I enjoyed or found appealing so that I would be able to better understand myself and my passions as I grew up.

It's very important not just to think you need to eat and drink and sleep. You need to feed your heart and your mind and your soul as well.

I love the story of Quasimodo, about someone who feels like they don't belong but is pure of heart and has good intentions. It's a great message for a younger audience.

I love music, and I love sports. I played sports all throughout school.
