I never lost an argument and my parents assumed I would be a lawyer. They cast me in that role.

Often in films there's more of allowing the actors to make the dialogue fit better in their own. Also, you get to a location and the geography is different, so the lines don't line up the right way, so you do have to change stuff.

I audition for stuff all the time, and what's weird about it is that one's success rate at auditioning doesn't really change. It's sort of at the same ratio of stuff you audition for to things you land.

I thought if I went somewhere where I didn't know anybody and they didn't know me I could start all over again.

I think you always learn something in every character you play onstage, either personally or creatively.

You can't really do a lot of research for being a mass manipulating, murdering super-villain.
