I really wanted to work in the American industry because it's the leading industry. It's where film and television started.

I came to America so that I could work with the best and be the best.

Dogs are more of a responsibility than kids - you can send a kid off to their grandparents or a nanny, but with a dog you can't do that.

So many young pets burn out in Hollywood, it's crazy.

I think that you can make a drama and have it be intensely funny, and vice versa.

It's always difficult when you want to do something really new, and you also want it to reach the masses, because the majority of people want to see what they've already seen before, or that they're already familiar with. To open the majority of peoples' minds to something new is difficult.

The acting is more of a secondary thing for me now. I will be in it, if I'm the best man for the job, but it really is about creating characters and shows.
