More and more of our finest actors are finding room for themselves in the world of television - but I truly believe it's because some of the best stories are being told there.

I just didn't want to get bored playing a character, and that's kind of the benefit of doing films; you've lived with a character for four or five months and that's it, and you walk away from that character and you feel like you told a story.

I'm just looking always for characters that change, because I want to get better, as an actor and as a person.

I kind of like the ping-pong coach aspect; it somehow fits, and I don't know how.

I love playing a villain. I think that there's something freeing about that, and it's a different kind of challenge. More than anything, for me as an actor, it's about challenging myself and doing as many different things as I can.

My kind of success has come a little bit later in life. I'm not 20 any more and these people I've been working with have been successful and good at what they do for a long time.

Working exterior nights in Vancouver, when it's raining and snowing, is a little daunting, when you haven't slept.
