I feel quite blessed that I can actually balance between the two worlds, because a lot of really talented actors I know end up getting set in a certain category and no one will ever buy that they can exist outside that category, even though you know full well that they can.

I did pilots here and there but mostly I was doing little bits in movies.

I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.

Then I did The Tao of Steve and that was at Sundance in 2000 where it did really well.

My mom, she's from Ireland, coached tennis in Nigeria when she was a missionary and turned me on to it when I was young.

No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film.

I just personally feel like the best writing for actors exists in cable television.
