To be a character actor is to be open, to be a chameleon.

Who told you to step on my sneakers? Who told you to walk on my side of the block? Who told you to be in my neighborhood?

I'm not someone who is a fan of a lot of violence.

People who have not done their research on me do not know that I am European, born in Copenhagen, Denmark to an Italian father from Napoli and a mother from Alabama who was singing opera and went to Europe, met my dad, fell in love, and then moved back to Rome, where I was raised, between Rome and Hamburg.

After 'Breaking Bad,' people are very frightened of who I am. They back away from me on the street.
