I like the idea of working in different genres and transcending genres and hopefully finding success, and ultimately make movies people like.

I don't worry about overexposure [in work], I think it's important just to go in, and think about quality work and try to put the best movies out.

When I train, I'm peeled away. I'm at my rawest state. Generally there's spit coming out my mouth, sweat pouring out my body and every once in awhile I may have just finished throwing up. Those are pretty good indications that it's not time to talk and you should just pass me by.

There's something very cool as an actor when you have an opportunity to play somebody who's real, whether they're still alive or not, but who has lived a life.

If you've ever been hungry then you'll never be full and I know what it's like to be hungry. When I was 13, I realized I could control my destiny through hard work. I had my hands and I was going to work my ass off, I was going to initiate and create some sort of change in my life.

I like the idea of making a big, fun, adventure type of movie.

The Rock has just one thing to say to you: poontang your ass on out of here!
