Fights take a long time to shoot.

You look at your past and things that are unresolved and figure out what you need to do to move forward and fill a role with your family and in your community.

The difficult thing about shooting a television series is that you never have enough time. You really don't.

Playing characters that speak a very violent language was my livelihood.

I'm also the father of three beautiful children and I've been married to my wife for 18 years, and we've been together for 20 years, so I have a very tender side.

Within the stability of a family struggle, when there's less chaos, you can have the most soul-searching and the most digging to find out what and who you really are.

If you trust that the people making the show love the source material and the characters, and it's a different medium and there are different requirements for long-form storytelling that will hopefully carry over a number of seasons, then it's exciting.
