I feel things can always be funny, but that's probably because I have some kind of leftover childhood need to make people laugh. For somebody like me, that's the thing you excel at.

I had great difficulty in school interacting with others, and I took refuge in the contrived setting of play acting, which is what I still do.

I live in New York City, so there's so much stimulation when you walk outside, it does not require a television in the home.

I don't attribute an actor's great success to their own individual performance when it's something as collaborative as a movie.

The movies that are really big, at least in my experience, oftentimes don't have characters that I feel as personally connected to.

There are some indications of how the character should behave based on the script, and then as actor makes it his or her own. I got to know one of the writers, Chris Terrio, and we were able to discuss things at length and figure out who this person is to create a real psychology behind what is, perhaps, in a comic book, a less than totally modern psychology. I can only say I've been asked to play an interesting role. A complicated, challenging person.

I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.
