People are really much more respectful than they're made out to be and much more discerning about the fact that I'm not the character I play.

You're kinda striding the line of what's yours and theirs. What's yours, what's mine, what's ours as creators of it and what's yours as owners.

I enjoy comedy and I hope that people enjoy watching me do it.

I enjoy trying to figure out the best way to compliment the picture and not overpower it.

I've turned down jobs because I've said, 'Honestly, I can't find my way in. I can't do it. I love you, as a director. I think the script is good. You deserve better than I think I can do.'

I don't think you could function on set if you think like that. I think once you start to think of the impact, then you're not really coming from a truthful place. I think the best thing to do for me is what's worked in the past.

One of the great things about doing series television is the guest actors that you can have come on and play around with.
