HBO does something that most networks don't do which is give a show a chance to find their voice.

Robert Rodriguez is a genius, and I'm a huge fan of his.

When you do a television show in the States, you get the pilot, and then it's the great unknown. That's the way it is. It's this great leap of faith. It's the Russian roulette of art.

I'm just a stage actor from Chicago.

We all deal with issues of time. The first thing you do in the morning is look at the clock to see what time it is.

There are so many great directors that I haven't worked with and that I would love to work with.

The stage is my love, it's where I started and where I do my best work.
