I'm surprised by how many people have not seen 'Footloose.'

I've done movies where I've had to cast actors and teach them to rap, and cast rappers and teach them to act.

You write a screenplay and then everybody is going to want to get in on it and we have to figure that out. I've written three screenplays that are at studios and I still haven't been making them yet so there is always something that is either going to trip something up or maybe get another pass.

I was raised a Southern Baptist, and my whole family were Christians. However, my Dad was really into science and astronomy, so I felt very balanced. I still had respect for faith.

I was chubby and awkward, and the only way I could really meet girls was to join children's theater, so that's what I did.

I think that there's a particular type of person who goes into children's theater, and then goes into theater in high school. There was something about the guys I knew in theater, we were all very vulnerable. You could tell that at some point we were made fun of.
