You have to pay attention to the work on the page and make it as good as possible because it could be your last.

Think about the physical act of pulling a trigger. The amount of pressure it takes to pull a trigger or the speed it takes to shove a sharp object into somebody. The psychology behind it. Why people kill? Why people don't kill?

People forget that actors are actors, who are looking to put on the clothes and the character, and then shed it just as easily.

I don't feel the pressure to deliver an unrealistically great man to the screen; I just want to be honest to who my character is on the page. If I can reflect that and put some heart into him and make him real, then I think I've done my job, and I think that people will like who he is.

The older I get, the easier it is to just be present in the moment, and understand what a man is going through.

I pretty much grew up in the Clubber Lang/Ivan Drago era. That was more my time. I've always been a fan of the films, even the fifth, that I know some people didn't care for, I've always enjoyed them.

My sisters and mom raised me to respect women and open doors for them.
