When somebody walks into a room they give off a certain kind of vibe or whatever and at that point that's how you're going to cast them.

If you do well as an actor, a good director will pick up on it, and keep it in the film.

I always feel like I want to do my career my own way. I never follow anybody's path, what they've done.

I try not to have high expectations of people because it just sets you up for disappointment, but it's great to work with actors who are that talented and accomplished.

Once you achieve a certain level of success or fame, it becomes really difficult to go against type.

I seem to have been cast several several times to do it. I think in this one, Phoenix is not purely evil. She was in the comic books at some point but the way the writers created her or we always talked about her, was that she was torn with her powers taking over and trying to control them at the same time. It was challenging to play which made it interesting for me to play this character.

I like the work that I get to do.
