I think everybody reacts to entertainment with a different kind of visceral way, probably mostly based on their own personal experiences.

I'd always tried not to worry about the size of the role or the size of the film.

Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.

I would say invisibility would be sort of a fun power to have just to see what it was like to move through the world and not be looked at.

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.

I think of being an actor as kind of a young man's gig. It's emasculating, in a way, people messing with you and putting make-up on you and telling you when to wake up and when to go to sleep, holding your hand to cross the street. I can do it up to a certain point, and then I start to feel like a puppet.

The business that people do in LA on the social level is amazing. You go to a restaurant, bump into this guy or that guy. The next day you get a call, and they want you in their movie.
