Craig Roberts
How did you start your career?
I started in kids TV. I was terrible, nothing’s changed.
What was your big break? My first role in a movie came when I was 18 in Richard Ayoade’s Submarine.
What advice would you give young people wishing to follow in your footsteps? Don’t let anyone stop you from doing something you want to do. I’d also say have something else. I don’t think it’s enough to just pursue being an actor as it can drive you insane waiting around for parts.
When did you last celebrate and what was the occasion? I premiered a movie I directed at SXSW recently. It’s called Just Jim. It was a very surreal experience.
Tell us one thing that no one knows about you? I listen to the Punch Drunk Love soundtrack most days. I also have an unreleased rap album.
What’s your party trick? Slipping in and out without being noticed.
