I've been lucky enough to go back and forth.

I remember working on movies like Gettysburg and feeling that Jeff Daniels was kind of a mentor.

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.

I don't know why I don't watch the Oscars. It's not bitterness or anything; it just seems weird.

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.

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