Comic-strip stuff isn't really my cup of tea, really.

I feel I do my best work when it's all there on the page, and I feel that the character is very vivid as I read the script and I'm not having to create stuff and trying to cobble together something. If I have to do that, then I don't entirely trust what I'm doing.

If it's a great role or a great film, then you're happy to be a part of it.

If I'm exhausted, physically and particularly emotionally, I can't tell what's good and I can't tell what's bad and I'm useless.

I just can't talk about things before I do them, because just for me... I give energy away before I've put energy into the job.

A movie that gets a PG-13 rating can show someone running down a street killing 27 people. And there are no repercussions.

You never really know what the director has got in his mind as far as the scene visually and art direction wise, etc. Even if you do, sometimes there's a side of things that don't necessarily gel the way people intend. So there a bit of a mystical entity, film.
