I always think a good sports movie is emblematic in the same way that a great Greek tragedy really has a certain kind of structure, or a Shakespearean play if you're looking at a comedy or a tragedy, is that these are the heights and depths of human emotion.

When a sports movie really works, it gets you on all levels, because the stakes are high. It's black and white. It's win or lose.

I always wanted to be one of those people who were good at many, many things, but from a very early age, I fell in love with acting.

One of the most important things for an actor is to observe humanity.

When my friends have a health concern, they call me. Ive always been a vitamin taker. I also take digestive enzymes and antioxidants, and supplements that help with the thyroid and adrenals for my time-zone changes.

Personally, just as an actor, I love accents; they're fun.

I find often in Hollywood there are many people who play themselves really beautifully. And certain parts are not that dissimilar from who you are as a person. And there are other parts where you would like to think that you have nothing in common with those characters, but you probably do have more than you think.
