I don't watch the movies I make, so I haven't seen 'Footloose' since it came out. You see this young, hungry actor, it's pretty fun. I was the only one they screen tested. It was an attempt by the director and producer to talk the head of the studio into hiring me because they didn't want me.

Doing the press, it's part of my job, so I do it with a smile on my face, but I'm not comfortable in the hot seat.

I'd really like to get the girl, shoot the gun, drive the car, have fun. I even have these kind of action dreams, where I'm the action guy.

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

As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.

I do struggle with how much and in which way, as an artist or celebrity, that you voice your political views.

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.
