Like it or not, I'm the new f***ing Aquaman buddy.

When I'm acting, I wish I was out there, being a part of it and making it. It's all on your name to do that. It's your vision. You're going to get slandered for your work, and I like that. As an actor, it's so hard. I'd rather direct than act.

I wanted to know everything about the blues. I think it constantly changes for me.

There are tons of things I'd love to do. I want to do comedy. It's not that I don't want to play a superhero, but I got to play Conan and Drogo.

As a Polynesian, our gods are tied to water, so this means something special.

I grew up with artists.

My favorite movie is 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.'
