The new celebrity thing is going to take some time to get used to because I really am not used to that!

I don't want to play a superhero. Drogo may not be Superman, but it is a phenomenal role. I didn't want to get typecast. Drogo is an exceptional character. Conan is iconic. Whether it does good or not, you just try to elevate it to the next level.

I made a conscious choice to turn down some movies that were action-based, so that I could direct Road to Paloma and show that side.

I love life and if there's something that I'm playing that I love, I'll research it.

I don't want to just play the same thing. But with The Red Road, no one has ever seen me like that. No one really even knows that I smile, have a personality and have a sense of humor.

I was born in Hawaii, but I was raised in Iowa.

I lay naked in furs a lot. I think I'm naked more than I talk.
