Because I killed a guy in real life, and because my character kills a guy onstage, they said I could never do anything this great again. I resented that.

I'm trying my hand at writing. I'm writing a couple of projects for HBO, a half hour comedy and a miniseries.

Because I killed a guy in real life, and because my character kills a guy onstage, they said I could never do anything this great again. I resented that.

I still make more money as I do as an actor than director, however I don't want to be a commercial director.

What I learned as an actor was the only way you could really do August Wilson's work, you had to leave an ounce of your essence on that stage,... Otherwise it was impossible.

This directing thing just sort of fell my way and landed in my lap.

I don't even know if I can call myself a director.
