I learn a lot from every director that I work with. I sit on set and watch them, every one.

You really feel an obligation to someone when they're trusting you to do something, and you promise that you'll come through for them.

When you do your comedy and your drama, your acting style doesn't change. If it's a comedy, the situations and the characters might be a little funnier, but you're just trying to be honest.

The comedy really comes from how badly you want these characters to succeed and with a comedy that's often hard.

It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do.

Every time you're directing a movie you're kind of building a temporary business. You're hiring all these heads of departments, and it definitely feels like I'm like a CEO of a very temporary company.

When someone who is known as a comedic actor goes to drama, it often doesn't work out, because they really just chose wrong, I think - or maybe they're just not good actors, I don't know.
