[About the ball-and-chain weapon he used as the Witch-King in 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' (2003)] "Some people call it a mace, some call it a morning-star, I called it 'damned heavy'."

My whole body, literally head to toe was covered in prosthetics. The head came in 5 pieces, the body came in all different stages, my arms, and my chest was glued on, my legs, feet, fingers, and hands! Every-single-part of my body was completely covered!

(on losing a limb to Aragorn) "It was really weird, I thought they would use a blue sock or something to cover my arm, so they can use the blue screen effect, but they didn't. We were in the forest just like you see it, I was asking them if they want me to hold my arm behind my back and the WETA digital guys just said 'no it's ok, we'll take care of it later'."

I always play the bad guys; in the next 007 film (Die Another Day) I play the bad guy. It's a type cast thing.
