It was only when I went to acting school that I was like, "You are absolutely such a pigheaded freak show that you thought you, at the age of 12 or 13, could have a better understanding of Stanislavski. Why did you think that you didn't need to go to school?" It was quite funny. But, I was certainly inspired.

Having a good director is very important. It's crucial. When you do good work with a certain director, you want to work with them again, and hopefully vice versa.

You provide a lot of people with entertainment, and that's what will happen. I don't think you should ever feel like you're used to anything of that nature because you're no different from anyone else.

Until I did my work and I did my utmost best, I feel like I don't have a right to feel excited.

I just saw dialogue, in the audition, and had no backstory. I was like, "I'm just going to be myself because I have no idea who this is or where he's coming from." The typical questions that actors have to ask themselves were very hard. I had to imagine, a little bit, and just made it work.

In my ideal world, it would be a soulful connection to the role because you've shared a lot of the same experiences as the character and you just feel so right in it. That's the first thing I look for.

There's this feeling, when you stop believing it's a show and you're there and this is happening.
