I was a film student. I became an actor but I thought I'd be pursuing filmmaking originally.

I don't need to prove that I'm some great international filmmaker. It's not really on my list of goals.

Even through my college years, I was trying out plays and shows, but I never really thought it made much sense to try to be an actor. I thought it was foolish, really.

I know something great will come around the corner, and that's what I'll be doing next.

Growing up, Paul Newman seemed like the ultimate manly actor. And then, I got to work with him and we became friends, so that was nice.

Whatever you hold onto that you want to do, and that other people tell you you are foolish to want to do, don't give up.

Every time I've made a plan in my Hollywood acting career, something else has happened, so I've gotten out of the habit of trying to predict the future.
