I'm an actor, in particular, that likes to have a mask or something that can help me distance myself from the character. Like the moustache or an accent.

Bad criticism has followed things like comic books or TV, and they put down a medium. A medium cannot be inherently good or bad.

I think we all understand disappointing yourself. Especially in the acting profession, which is probably similar to a political career, even the most stable, head-on-straight person is still going to be confronted with doing something that they shouldn't, that could affect their job or cause them not to be at their best - even if it's something as simple as taking a red eye for an audition at 6 a.m. the next morning and you know you'll be dragging.

I really feel incredibly fortunate to not be stereotyped. And it's something that I and my representatives are very keen on preserving.

It's sort of cliche, but when you're playing drunk, your character is trying to appear sober.

Having an opportunity to play different characters, and work in different mediums, that's what's fun. The worst question you could be asked is, "What do you like better, film, television or theater?"

I believe that love that is true and real creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving, or not loving well, which is the same thing.
