I consider myself a storyteller, not really even an actor. I consider myself a storyteller.

There's a point where art is not subjective, and my example for that is Picasso. If you don't like Picasso, that's your problem.

I love playing bad. But my whole thing is usually villains that don't know that they're evil.

Usually when you're working on fight scenes, you don't really feel what's going on physically. It's more when you go back home and you're like, "My god!," and you wear the wounds or bruises with a certain amount of pride.

I started as a director and just fell upon acting.

I loved painting and drawing for many reasons. One of them was that all it really required was me, a pencil and a pad. It was something I was passionate about, and still am.

I had no ambitions to become an actor, whatsoever. I was just waiting for my films to get made and some friends of mine, out of the kindness of their hearts, because I was sitting around doing nothing, started casting me in small roles and the roles got bigger.
