Sometimes I wondered whether I hadn't let my career get confined to one direction, but lately I've decided to accept the fact that I have this opportunity to be successful doing comedies.

I have not been an easygoing guy. I think it's called bipolar manic depression. I've got a rich history of that in my family.

When we were visiting New York City, I took my kids to the same playground where I went growing up. It was fun to feel that connection of having gone there as a kid and being there as a parent.

I don't even want to think of myself as an actor because it's such an insecure place to go.

I'd love to travel more. I really look forward to traveling with my kids. I'm just waiting for them to want to travel with me.

I'm very interested in the early American history, the time when the country came together.

The big-name stars . . . are always going to be playing what they've played before if they want to remain so-called A-list stars. That's why someone like Johnny Depp is doing more interesting roles not caring about the size of the movie.
