For me, becoming a man had a lot to do with learning communication, and I learned about that by acting.

I always think back to the original movies and to those quieter moments where Luke is out in A New Hope, and there are the two suns setting. It is the equivalent, basically, of a farm boy dying to get out of his small town and do something bigger. It's those kinds of universal themes that ground this whole thing in space.

Through theater and acting school, I found a way to articulate myself.

What is important is to maintain integrity of the story, of the character, of the movie, even if it's a big production.

At the end of whatever we're doing, I always feel like I want to go back and start over again because now I have a better sense of what it is. I feel that with everything. Like, if you're doing like a long run of a play and you're doing it seven shows a week, at the end of it, I want to go back and start from the beginning.

I originally passed on 'Girls' because I thought TV was evil.

Emphasis in the Marine Corps isn't on talking about your feelings.
