Being a true bad ass has no weight or gender requirement - just 100% commitment to greatness.

One of the most important things you can accomplish is just being yourself.

For me it came from the material. It was so well written and brought the opportunity to work with great actors. And of course the opportunity to mince about was an added element that I wanted to take advantage of!

Any athlete or any actor who's preparing for a long time to step on a stage or step on a field or step on a movie set, who suffers an injury right before you're getting ready to perform or to execute - it is a massive challenge that's thrown your way that you didn't expect.

My goal as an actor is to grow and try different things.

Success isn't always about 'greatness'. It's about consistency. Consistent hard work gains success. Greatness will come.

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.
