The actor has become one of the industry's biggest draws since he rose to fame in 1990 with his starring role in Edward Scissorhands.

Although the 46-year-old is still busy in film nearly two decades later, he told People that he finds it astonishing that he has managed to get so far.

He revealed: "The whole ride - my whole ride and experience on the ride - since day one has been pretty surreal in this business. It defies logic, why I'm still here. I'm still completely shocked that I still get jobs and still am around... I've been very lucky.

"I had no idea where anything was going, but you can't. It's almost impossible to predict anything like that. I had no idea. I had hoped... But I'm luckily still here."
