Something that has always attracted me to even taking on the occupation of actor is the idea that I could be lucky enough to portray different characterizations from different places in the world, whether it's speaking another language or taking on a dialect and building a history from where they were born. I was very attracted to that concept, in becoming an actor.

We're all part of movie and we're all incredibly and equally important but it is your actor's job to perform and to deliver.

I've learned from every director I've worked with. Everybody's style is very different, and I always say that being an actor is the best film school that I could ever go to.

Filmmaking is a huge privilege; it's not brain surgery. It's art, and art is supposed to be an enjoyable process, and it is an enjoyable experience for me.

You have to be steadfast, and right now I'm on a stream train forward to make.

It's like the most profound accomplishment that I've had in my career, that I can finally be that voice.
