Whenever you're the child of a famous person, you get judged in odd ways because of that.

I don't think I ever went down that movie star path. I always enjoy taking a 90-degree turn from the last thing I did.

I like to think of myself as a character actor, though there's some redundancy in that...

My father Lloyd Bridges was very versatile in his parts, but he had a hit in the '60s 'Sea Hunt,' where he played a skin diver. And he was so into that role that people actually thought he was a skin-diver.

One of the things that I find so exciting about life is that you're constantly surprised. You never know what's going to happen, and it's certainly like that making movies; every once in a while, one will come along that transcends all of your expectations.

You have to find your tone and work within that to make it as real so the audience can really engage in the story you're telling.

I'm drawn to the path of least resistance.
