I'm a huge fan of classic sci-fi.

Looking back is a form of insanity, given that I could really never understand what everybody else was thinking. I find these days that I'm much more efficient when I just focus on what I need to do in order to move my family forward and get the focus off me.

I think that the way of bringing realism into fantasy is to treat it as the commonplace.

The truth that I know for sure is that I may have an opinion, but I do not know the truth, and the other thing I know for sure is that certainty is the root of all ignorance and the root of all evil.

I pretty much always choose characters. That's what I do. That's what I look for. I look for dynamics in a script and potential.

I don't watch the beginnings of many series, I don't know why, maybe because I'm normally working.

I've actually usually been wary of taking on science fiction as an actor because it's really tough to do. It's really difficult to execute. There's often lots of prosthetics, green screen and special effects, and it can get very technical.
