I at least felt the obligation to speak clearly [in 'The Last Tycoon']. This is pre-Brando and pre-James Dean. Nobody mumbled back then.

If you gave your best to what you were given, at the time, it's going to play out how it's going to play out.

In that Freak Show environment, I got to spend time with so many of the actors who were part of that world. I just had the best time ever.

Human beings are good, they have shadow, every single one of us has redeeming qualities and every single one of us has qualities that people can hold against us. That’s what makes us human.

I've never cared about how successful or how big I was going to be. I just wanted to be part of a story that affected people, made them laugh or cry. To me, that was more important than having my face on some billboard.

It's so rare, especially as a younger actor, to find a role where it's not just one-dimensional and it's not just a stock leading man.

I never feel more confident and comfortable than when I'm wearing a Tom Ford suit.
