Hello, man.

Very nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you. - Congratulations on the film.

Can you tell me why Magneto is a more fun X-Man to play than some of the others?

Of the other X-Men? I dunno more fun, I just think there's- To be the sort-of counterpoint

to Charles Xavier. The whole concept between these two characters who both want the same

thing but have very different means to get there and to have two guys that are enemies

on one side but then best of friends, there's a complexity in that relationship that's very

real and adult. And it's fun to be able to fly-

Well his powers are cooler.

Yeah, to control magnetic field is pretty cool.

Now, when you're in a big famous ensemble like this, is the inner thesbian saying 'I'm

gonna act you guys off the screen.' Is there an element of competitiveness in you?

Absolutely. Once I put the cloak and the helmet on, you have to hold me back. I mean, you

know, it is quite theatrical these sorts of things because they're larger than life characters, obviously.

As James was saying before, they're almost like, in Greek mythology you have demi-gods.

In a way they're sort of that representation in the modern era. So it's quite theatrical.

Now, Hugh Jackman said that inbetween takes you danced to Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines.'

That's right. Yeah, we did a lot of dancing on set. You know, it's sort of singing and

dancing and Hugh's a singing and dancing man. So, you know, you have long days where it

can be sort of tedious sometimes when you're filming, especially very technical stuff with

green screens. So anything to lighten the mood is always welcome.

And you're up against someone like Hugh when you're singing and dancing. You've had a lot

of variety in your career so far, do you look at his career and think,'Yeah, a musical.

That'd be a laugh. I'd be up for that.'

Sure, I'd like to do a musical. In fact, Steve McQueen and I have been talking about doing

a musical, so, hopefully that'll come to fruition.

I read that you're hardly ever at home. You're a guy who just likes to be constantly working

and enjoy the stimulus of being on a film set-

Don't believe anything you read, man. I mean, I have been working pretty consistently but

that's just because certain opportunities come along and they're just too good to let

them go by. So, I suppose for the last couple of years it's been fairly non-stop. I'll be

working on this film next called 'Trespasses Against Us' which is about a gypsy family

and that will be filmed in the UK.

- Can I also do a bit of Fassbender mythbusting? - Okay

Because I think one of the things people really like about you is you're quite an enigma.

Now this I read, but this is an interview with you and you said, and I just want to know

if this is true, because this was quite cool, that you were having a bottle of win with

a friend and it was from Argentina, and you liked it so much that you flew to Argentina.

That's true.

That very day you flew?

No, no, no. Not the very day. I can't remember how long it was. Whenever he job that I was

doing finished and he obviously has to finish his semester; he's a professor. But I think it

was maybe a month or so after. Whenever it was we were both free.

And any motorcycle trips lined up soon?

Hopefully. I don't know when, but I think maybe the next one will be South America.
