These cybercrime fighters are regarded as the superheroes. They’re highly intelligent and have this alien-like, advanced-type knowledge within themselves. It’s something that impressed me every day.
I love that Viking era, but also they’re a fatalistic people and that dictated their fearlessness in battle and approach to life.
I put the costume on and said ‘It’s not very comfortable, but it looks amazing,’ so it’s all good.
It wasn’t until ‘Thor’ that I started lifting weights. It was all pretty new to me.

At home in Victoria, we have three dogs, Tosh and Lucy, they’re half Blue Heelers, and then there’s Torrin a little Maltese terrier. She gets more attention in the house than anyone else! Yes, I miss them a lot.
