I used to be a street performer, and performances on Venice Beach, it's like playing the Apollo: They let you know if they don't like you!

Looking back at my career, if there's one word that most people use to describe me, it's intense.

In Hawaii, there are 50-year-old grandfathers, because they got married so early.

The worst thing that can happen is that the effect that they create behind you is bigger than the performance you're putting out.

I have to humbly say people really like the bad guys.

I was excited about working with Richard Gere. Oh, and Joan Allen! Oh, my God, she is such a force of nature, it's mind boggling.

That's the worst thing for an actor: when you say to someone, "Yeah, I was in that movie," and they say, "You were?"
