There's a real danger in doing a sequel. There are some benefits, but that all hinges on how well you execute. Quite frankly, most sequels don't execute well

I love food shows: Anthony Bourdain, Iron Chef, Chopped, you name it.

We as actors doubt up until the last minute that we can be this person. So everything matters, the more work you do, you get in touch with who the character is.

I'm very much a leader in a lot of the work that I do or that I've done in my career.

We never really felt a real level of respect. The fame was fantastic, but that wasn't that important to me, because for every million people that loved me I focused on the one that hated me.

I try to ground most of my characters in reality somehow. That's kind of what I bring to the table.

You can't dictate if a character's going to come off as sympathetic to an audience. I just tried to play it as honest as possible.
