I was the kid who read a lot and who was academic, and who was more of an indoor person than an outdoor person. I would win the summer reading contest at the library.

I love my kids with all my heart and the last thing I want to worry about is the air they breathe.

Movie studios aren't making too many dramas anymore; they're in the superhero business. Material for television is much, much stronger for actors now.

Men aren't asked about their children.

My schedule, it always looks like it's really steady, but believe it or not, I tend to work a bunch and then take a year off.

I like stories about people. I like things that are human and different. I want to be as engaged in my work as I am in reading a book. I want to be electrified by the films I do.

I like that sense of family in my workplace, having the same pair of eyes to look into.
