Artistic ambition is important. And it seems it would be a great time to do some theatre, like a new extreme.

I'm a very, very conservative driver.

James Dean taught me not to speed, River Phoenix taught me not to DO speed, and Marlon Brando taught me to slow down on the cheeseburgers.

Brokeback Mountain' just blew me away. I'll always remember talking to Heath Ledger just after he finished that movie and he was going on about working with Ang and how incredible he was.

On 'Into The Wild' I spent months risking my life and on 'Speed Racer' I spent 60 days acting in front of a green screen. No danger to my physical self, but I sure had to use my imagination.

I know what wanting and craving adventure feels like, I can really relate to that.

When you're reading Thoreau you look at Hollywood differently, let me tell ya!
