'I've never had any ambition as an artist. That may sound crazy and transgressive, but it's a fact,' she told the publication.

'If you'd asked me when I was 10 or 20, I would have said my only ambitions were to live in a family, to have friends that made me laugh and laughed at my jokes...

'And to live in the Highlands of Scotland, by the sea with a lot of dogs and a kitchen garden. Seriously.

'And I have been really blessed to be able to achieve them. Everything else is a bonus. Everything else is just icing and candles and flowers alongside.'

Elsewhere in the interview, announced she identifies as 'queer', as she touched on 'finding her circus' and said her experience with the identity is to do with 'sensibility'. 

The narrator shared: 'I always felt I was queer - I was just looking for my queer circus, and I found it.' 

The Chronicles of Narnia star also touched on her close relationships with her industry colleagues, among them an array celebrated directors, as she added: 'I'm very clear that queer is actually, for me anyway, to do with sensibility. And having found it, it's my world.

'Now I have a family with Wes Anderson, I have a family with Bong Joon-ho, I have a family with Jim Jarmusch, I have a family with Luca Guadagnino, with Lynne Ramsay, with Joanna Hogg.'

On gender, the Deep End star said in the past: 'I don't know if I could ever really say that I was a girl – I was kind of a boy for a long time. I don’t know, who knows? It changes.

'That whole idea of transformation is at the heart of what I’m interested in as a performer and not least through the idea of gender. It’s a very personal matter. I can categorically say that as Orlando does in the film: Yes, I’m probably a woman.'

The Ancient One actress added to journalist Vera von Kreutzbruck in 2009: 'I enjoy walking the tightrope of identity, of sexual identity, of gender identity.'
