I hate to say "found himself" - it sounds so ridiculous.

There are these fantasies among people who watch movies where they're like, "Oh, there's a chemistry between them - something going on." And sometimes there is. But for me, it's more like, I go to work, I do a job, I play a role, and then I go home. I don't wear a cape at home. I'm not an invulnerable alien at home.

Some people thrive under pressure, but pressure can also ruin your performance, it can push you down angles which you don't want to go.

I know I can't make everyone happy, but I know I can do the most justice I can possibly do to a character, or any character, if I put my all into it. That's the choice you have to make.

Getting the role like this is such awonderful opportunity... I remember looking in the mirror and going 'I'm superman'.

I remember going, "I'm really excited about this - I really want it to happen. It would be a wonderful opportunity." But if something doesn't happen, then it doesn't happen. My mother and father sort of raised me to look at things that way.

My mother and father have also raised five boys so they know there's only so much that can be controlled.
