When you look at some of the most respected actors there are and the crap that they're in... it didn't used to be that way.

Violence doesn't seem to bother people anymore - they're inured to it. And I think it has a lot to do with the violence in movies and video games - it doesn't bother people as much. I'm not so sure it evokes a reaction anymore.

I have all this time between projects, and I'm not so sure that's a healthy thing. It's scary, because at 36 I'm woefully unqualified for anything else.

When actors talk about research, they're just patting themselves on the back.

Now, being on the cover of Vanity Fair is as important as being in great movies. The lines are very, very blurred.

I never turned down a movie because they wouldn't give me enough money.

My method seems to change to everything, especially when you get older. You have more of a resonance to be able to grab to. When you're younger, you have these big boundaries because you don't know how to get you to where you are. When you get older, you have a few tricks that you can pull off.
