You should always challenge yourself, as an actor, to find the connection between you and the character.

I have two dream roles: One would be a biopic of someone I admire and respect and the other one would be some sort of action drama film similar to a 'Bourne Identity.' I just really want to do an intelligent action drama film.

My first heartbreak devastated me, but it was the support of my family and my second family, my church family, that helped me understand that it wasn't my fault, and that everything was going to be alright. That helped me tremendously later in life because in this acting business, there are a lot of things beyond your control.

I feel like I've finally made it as an actor. I've been doing this for years and you don't always make a movie that everybody likes.

I wasn't smart enough to read relationship books when I was coming up. I learned everything the hard way.

I used to love the 'Star Trek' movies, 'Wrath of Khan' and stuff like that. Loved those movies when I was a kid. And 'Star Wars' obviously was hands-down probably - I mean I had the sheets. I was a big fan of that.

I know the commitment that TV requires but it's nice to come to work and have fun.
