I've always enjoyed doing a huge variety of roles, which I think helps, instead of settling for the things I might be most comfortable with.

I fell in love with film. I didn't start out to be a film actor. I wanted to be a theater actor.

When you're no longer seeing yourself, in some ways. You're as close to being as you can be.I suppose that's consistent with the moment that the mind actually turns off, and is no longer questioning what you're doing. When the questions stop, that's when the real acting takes over. And trying to get to the point where the questions stop, "Would I do this? How do I feel about that as a character?" When those stop, and it's just doing X, Y, and zed, because that's what you'd do as this character, because you're inside this character somehow - that's when it really kicks off.

I'm constantly looking to see whether I look the same as I did earlier, whether I've put on or lost any weight.

There's always something ridiculous happening on the set, especially when people get tired because of the long days.

I don't ever feel like I've had a moment where I am like, "There it is; perfect and holy in all ways."

I started off doing plays as a theater actor. But I never thought of it in terms of it leading anywhere. I was just trying to be the best actor that I could be in the context of what I was doing.
