Fame was initially this kind of blunt tool that was thrust into my hands very young.

I look for the character to be something interesting, the script to have a good story and be original, and a director that I admire.

I just think of interesting roles to play. I guess that I have matured, I guess growing up and becoming a man, your taste in characters changes and I think I have become more interested in active characters as I have become less contemplative in my personal life. Things have become a little bit more interesting in the doing these days and less interesting in the thinking about the doing.

I never really considered acting as a career. I kind of fell into it. Originally, I wanted to be a painter.

I think guys understand love a little better than girls.

I guess I will probably produce a little bit more. For me it's a career, you create as you go along and you can't worry about always being on top.

I don't love LA. I love New York and Minneapolis, so if I have a choice I'll stay in those places.
