I get to play with great friends and a great crew, every day, blowing stuff up and saying evil lines. You can't complain about that.

I didn't want to play a mediocre villain. I wanted to go full-on.

It makes it easier to play evil and to act evil to people that you really like. You have a feeling about them, so you know what the opposite is.

I ask the stunt guys, all the time, to do as much of the stunts as possible, and they let me do a lot. They don't throw me through windows because they're not allowed to and I probably wouldn't say yes to that. But I have done a lot of physical acting before, in theater, so that comes very natural to me.

My favorite villain was maybe Batman. I think Vandal Savage is really cool 'cause he has the ability not to die and he's smart, but he doesn't have any gadgets, he doesn't shoot fire and he doesn't fly. He's just old school, and I love that.

I just watched the news. Seeing crazy people doing crazy stuff to other people and pretending that they're the good guys really helped.
