This was basically the first time I got to act in action scenes, with things blowing up all around me. It sounds corny, but I think every actor would like to - at least once in his or her career - play the person who saves the entire world.

I also couldn't pass up the opportunity to be in the same movie as Jack Nicholson and Glenn Close.

I love seeing people having fun. Everyone over in L.A. is too cool for it. That's the problem.

I've been into music for a long time. I started playing drums when I was 8 and piano when I was 10, then bass and guitar when I was 18.

It's cool to play a sinister bad guy who also has a human side.

A low budget is uncomfortable.
