"I finished Bodyguardand didn't want to act again," Madden told GQ. "It had taken so much out of me physically, mentally and personally [...] You didn't get a day off. My character doesn't get a second off. It took more out of me than anything else I've done."

"Everyone just loves the rumour mill on that topic," Madden told GQ. "I'm just the current one. There'll be a different one next week. But still, I say: nice to be mentioned all the same."
