I grew up Catholic. I'm not religious now but I would say that I'm a very spiritual person and you're always in search of answers.

I really love the festival circuit.

I'm not too modest of a person. I've got a pretty blue sense of humor.

It's really challenging to play comedy.

I find that in preparation for a drama you can do a lot of character work and develop the character and know what you want to achieve and project throughout the course of the film.

It was very fortuitous that the show [True Detective] actually spans seventeen years - so as I was getting older on the show, I was gaining weight. When I'm playing fifty, I'm ten pounds heavier! I don't know if they thought maybe I was method? But it actually worked to my benefit.

I will say that is a quality I love about great directors, which is the ability to give you one word that can inspire you. I appreciate a director with a very good vocabulary. There are so many directors that I have worked with that can give you one word.
