I wanted to become an engineer, or get a masters in business. But I had the opportunity to do films when I was about 25 and it was a great way to express myself.

It takes nine months for a baby to develop, it takes nine months to develop a character.

I've actually always been into suits. But I never really wore them, I guess because I was too young and it didn't feel right.

It was fun to talk too much [as Jebediah Woodley], to keep running your mouth whether the other characters want to hear it or not. That's part of what made this guy fun.

The interesting thing about TV drama that's kind of nice is, I'm just an actor. I'm doing my role.

I try to keep the martial arts up. It's a good thing, not just physically but also for your mind.

Movies are a powerful medium. People think you are your character. I've had plenty of people who think I'm Drago. They don't know about the chemical engineering part of my personality. They don't know about the geek part of my personality.
