The first step that leads to our identity in life is usually not 'I know who I am,' but rather 'I know who I am not.'

Each of the films, whether it’s Magic Mike or Dallas Buyers Club, was a challenge for me. I had to dig deeper. Also, my decision to shake things up came after my first child was born. I had taken nearly two years off and I thought that I would enjoy my time as a dad and wait until something interesting came along.

I've never been a jealous person, and I've never felt built up by someone else's failure - that's a cheap thrill.

I love Los Angeles, and it's been very good to me, but if everyone is running around telling the stories, who's living them? You don't play characters that are celebrities - you play guys who know what to do when their septic tank's blocked.

I've done films where we don't rehearse and I've done films where we heavily rehearse. I like rehearsals.

For me, one of the toughest things about Valentine's Day is that it gets geared up as the day to profess your love. See, T-E-S-T - that's a bad word that doesn't go with L-O-V-E.

Absolutely not. I have no problem with commitment. In fact, I love having someone in my life.
