I was at the birth of my two girls.

After drama school I did a seven-month tour of Europe performing in 'Romeo and Juliet.' I played Romeo.

I'm competitive with myself, not at the expense of everything around me. I never wanted to be a movie star. I just wanted to act.

I want to go anywhere and everywhere and explore as much as I can.

I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.

A lot of the projects that I do, I like to be involved with earlier. I just feel that, certainly from an acting point of view, it's easier to do my job, if I'm included in what the intentions are, for why people are doing what they're doing, especially with a director.

I think that Phil Kaufman is one of the best directors that I have come across.
