So I thought, for a start, he could vocally do it, because he’s got this beautiful voice. If you’re in the studio with him, he’s literally on the balls of his feet, bouncing around. And James always has a passion and an energy in him. We needed to have a sense of latent energy in him, even if things are laid-back. I felt that what we needed to be careful of with Dream was that he might always sound passive. And of course there’s no pressure in casting a character who’s spent 30 years in everyone’s consciousness. everybody’s got their own idea about Dream. James was pretty much at the forefront of our mind from the off, because we worked with him on Neverwhere, the BBC dramatization on BBC Radio Four in England, with Neil, and he was just a joy to work with.
