My forever mission is to take the best elements of both commercial and independent films and bring them together. I learned so much about the art of independent films and I have so much fun in commercial ones. I think that a mix of both is good.

That's probably why my face was looking so crazy when I was crying [in "Hardball"] because it was some real.

Never played football, but I'm an athlete. I'm a competitor.

Sometimes you're overthinking, you convince yourself to get out of it and you're like, "Ah I shoulda did that!" You can't live life with regrets. Sometimes you just gotta indulge. But in the same breath, you gotta have restraint and self-control too.

Just us as people, we're different around different people and in different environments.

As an actor, you never want to feel like a tool. You never want to feel like, "Hey, just come here, say this, stop here, look this way," and that's it. You want to have a little input.

I'm definitely a lover, but I fight when I have to - for something or someone.
