Comedy is so hard; it's so much harder than drama. The pacing of it, the energy of it.

I've worked with some incredibly difficult directors but my understanding is that a lot of the best people are driven from a place of being extremely challenging and dark within their way

I think actors become jacks-of-all-trades and masters of none.

I think I've spent so much time playing characters that are so far away from me and learning how to technically build and how to technically put something on top of you.

I want to be so strong as an actor that people wouldn't say... eh, that's Josh Lucas

I tried something when my career was really struggling: reaching out to people, to filmmakers I wanted to work with. I genuinely wrote a letter to Clint Eastwood saying, "Hey man, I'm a fan and I would be an extra in your movie."

At a certain point, even if the one alpha male is dominant, at a certain point there's a younger lion that is stronger, and everyone knows it.
