Doing voiceover, they bring you in, you're wearing jeans, you haven't shaved, you're wearing a baseball cap, and you go in, do it, make a lot of money and go home. It's fun. I enjoy doing it very much. So that's been really fun for me.

The way I pick movies is, first, if the script is any good. Then, if the script is good, who else is in it, the director, the producer, all that.
