Some actors might just do one thing, and another actor does another thing. I do an awful lot of preparation with the script, really. What I do is repeat the script, over and over and over again. Through that, it's almost like it seeps into my enamel. I'm reading all the characters, as well as my own. That is where the bulk of my preparation goes into.

I don't like to plan anything ever because it never seems to work. I'm just really...let's just get this film out and see how this one does.

Big things have small beginnings.

I keep everything very simple. I like telling stories.

I might have been curious about actors' lives when I was growing up. That's human nature.

Why not provoke some thought and get people talking about things? I like characters that are flawed because we all are. When people break up in a script, you think, Oh, right, there must be tears shed here. But maybe the fact of the matter is that they're both laughing.

I try my best to find variety in what I'm doing, but there's a lot out there that's the same.
