When the director has a vision for a piece that I've never heard before, and they can back that up with visuals, and they talk a good game, I get really interested in the world that they're trying to...

I should be getting photographs of me with my arm around these people like restaurant owners do, because eventually I am going to have to prove to my kids that once I was an actor!

You know, honestly, acting in film is remarkably independent. You're doing your thing and someone else is doing their thing.

People care about my fame, not me. But that's fine. I have my own life.

Running around when I was a kid was a really happy time; a time when getting home for dinner or for sleep were my only responsibilities.

Life isn't what it's like in the movies.

Not living in L.A. gives me a different perspective. I'm not so caught up in the daily process of self-congratulations that's out there.

I never really considered acting as a career. I kind of fell into it. Originally, I wanted to be a painter.

My musical tastes go from Zeppelin to Bob Dylan to Kanye West and Lil' Wayne. Anything modern and progressive.

I look for the character to be something interesting, the script to have a good story and be original, and a director that I admire.
