I think all actors are on the constant search for a real challenge just to keep things interesting.

I've been in scenarios as an actor where you have to manufacture an emotion that's not really there, but it wasn't hard with Halle because she's a great person and very beautiful, so it ain't a tough job at the end of the day.

My sense of personal strength has always come from my family.

I've made a career over the last seventeen years of mostly playing men in uniform, especially cops. The one thing for an actor that is death, is if you're bored. The boredom will show in your work.

I count it as a major victory to not only be on a series that's had a full season run, but to actually be on one that's gotten picked up for a second season.

I've always felt that acting is acting at the end of the day, so whether you're doing comedy or heavy drama or anything else in between, you always have to bring a semblance of honesty to it. It's all make believe.

Part of my aspiration as a film actor is to bring subtlety to everything I do - honesty but subtlety.
