Young actors are pretty fantastic. I can't even imagine doing stuff like that when I was a kid.

I love not feeling this hydraulic pressure that you have to create this comic moment within every scene. You can just play it as it is.

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 played on this soccer team, called Hollywood United, and there were a lot of old ex-international pro-players. We played this benefit match at the Rose Bowl, and the crowd streamed in. It's so nerve-wracking to go out into a stadium, feeling a billion eyes upon you when you mess up your touches. That's an overwhelming environment.

Once a film is made and it exists, someone somewhere is going to watch it and that is kind of the magic of it all.

To be honest, when you're young and you watch The Deer Hunter for the first time, that's when you're like, "That's what I want to do."

A college football star, by his senior year, is used to running out there with 110,000 people going nuts. They feel comfortable in that environment. To me, a set feels like that. The one thing that I do know is that, as long as I'm prepared, I know this environment and this world.
