My role as a producer is very specific. It's maintaining the creative truthfulness, day in and day out.

When you're dealing with espionage and covert affairs, sometimes the secret is more exciting than the knowledge.

I don't think an actor's job is to be recognized. I think an actor's job is to facilitate the writing in a way that changes the way people think. No other business does that.

If someone grabbed me, I'd probably be able to choke them out in about eight seconds.

It's very, very technical, what we do in film. While all of the lights are there and all of the crew members and directors are staring right at you, you have to be honest. It's a very difficult, but technical medium.

I'm very shy in real life; I can't really hit on girls.

What would surprise a lot of people about me... I'm a gardener! I have a green thumb. I really like to get into the shrubs, the bushes, and really cultivate.
