When I'm tired of taking on too much responsibility as a director I then look for an acting gig.

I think coming to work and being absurd and neurotic and thoughtful at the same time is far more interesting.

I have this necklace I always wear. I collect pendants from people I love; my best friends and members of my family have all given me one, and I put them on this chain so no matter where I am they're always with me.

I had had a huge background in the nuance of the accent because I went to drama school in England for four years.

I'm in full transparency here of "Yeah, I'm trying to find my financing."

I don't really enjoy working in TV, to be completely honest, even though it's incredibly lucrative, I'm just terrified of not being satiated in a myriad of different ways. It's amazing that I get to create every day, as an actor, or a director, or a writer, and I get to do it in a variety of different genres and worlds and characterizations. I think that's the great privilege of what we do, we get to make believe. I get to go to so many different places, try on different occupations, take on different points of view. That's what's always been sort of alluring.

I'm vegan on home base, but when I travel to other countries, I throw it all into the garbage.
