I don't have to do the lead. If I dig a part, I'll do it.

Here's the thing - I mean, I don't act for statues. I really don't. The great thing about winning an award is that it creates opportunities.

Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.

A good director creates an environment which gives the actor the encouragement to fly.

I'm always happier and a better actor when I can really lose myself in a character and become somebody else.

I always watch rushes. They give me a sense of whether I'm going in the right direction. You work hard and hopefully get encouragement from what you see.

A lot of times, the script is the thing they care about least.
