I love any challenge that comes my way, and I've been lucky to have many.

You shouldn't need 60 full minutes to create a portrait that an audience doesn't forget. You should be able to make an impression that's lasting and resonant with one scene.

I'm not one of those actors who sits around the table and intellectualizing anything, or discusses much of anything. Everything for me is intuitive and instinctive.

I'm not a guy who likes cliches. I don't think that stereotypes and cliches are the end of the line, when it comes to a performance.

The idea of a regular-looking guy who is the lead of something - whether it's a movie or a show - is something that I really hope I can grow towards.

The hardest thing in the world to play is something close to myself.

In my experience, it tends to be a real reflection of someone's intelligence, confidence and sensitivity when they can just be real.
