The first thing, the main thing, about how I work is I need to understand the character.

As a teenager, I didn’t want to be me; I wanted to be many different people. Maybe I realized that they all lived inside me and that if I managed to connect with them, they would become aspects of me.

I AM VERY MOVED BY SURVIVORS. BY PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO OVERCOME A HANDICAP, A SITUATION, OR ANYTHING. VISITING THE HEARTS AND SOULS OF THOSE PEOPLE TEACHES ME A LOT ABOUT HUMANS AND HUMANITY.

I'm always 100% committed to a character, a story and a director, and with Michael Mann it was 1,000%. I don't know how to explain this.

I would love to go into an animal's dream - like a lion's or a cat's. I'm sure that's pretty awesome.

We lost this animal instinct that we used to have. We use a very low percentage of our instinct.

I think we're lied to about a number of things.
