Now the idea in the movie world is to make things the same. And in the TV world, the idea is to do something different, so... that's why I'm here!

Acting is playing - it's actually going out on a playground with the other kids and being in the game, and I need that. Writing satisfies that part of myself that longs to sit in my room and dream.

Every character I play is me, always has been.

Getting the nomination is like gravy. Winning would be like whatever is better than gravy.

I don't have a fear of flying; I have a fear of crashing.

After you've done 60-something movies, you're always looking for something different.

Now, if you want to do realistic, kind of heavier acting stuff, you do it on Amazon or Netflix or whatever or HBO.
