When I was younger and studying acting, I never ever saw myself in the sitcom world; it was drama that really turned me on and still does.

A true gentleman doesn’t prefer blondes. A true gentleman doesn’t have any preferences whatsoever.

But I'm kind of spoilt when it comes to comedy. I was on 'Friends', which was one of the funniest things on television.

As an actor, the biggest compliment you can get, in my book is for someone to believe that you're the character.

The majority of my background is multi-camera format, which is very broad and a very arch perception of reality. Whereas single camera tends to be more truthful and a little more intimate of a medium. Friends was an education in intelligent comedic banter; in intelligent vernacular. It was an education in scene study. It was an education in group dynamic. I came out of there with a masters degree in comedy.

I'm not in a rush to do anything. And I wouldn't say I pick and choose. When it comes to producers picking people for roles I don't think it's between me and Tom Cruise, do you know what I mean?
