The audience never learns your character�s name in �Layer Cake.� When you were preparing to play him, how did you refer to him? Did you come up with your own name?
Only a joking name. I always called him �Cynthia.� No, the point about it is that he�s someone who doesn�t have an identity. He doesn�t have an identity for a very good reason because he doesn�t want to sort of allow too much of himself to be known. So it kind of just played into the character.
So when you were working on the film, you�d tell your friends you were just playing �this guy�?
Yeah, just a guy. I mean, really, people call him �Four X� or �Quadruple X.� I was talking to someone today who called him �Deleted.� And that�s probably the best name for him.
