I believe in helping the planet survive, and that includes reaching out to help some of the disappearing creatures whose habitats we're destroying. It's up to us to somehow reverse that trend. I don't know how we'll achieve it, but we need to.

I was lucky in that when the opportunity came, I was prepared to meet it.

In growing up, I was a child of the movies. I went to the movies every given opportunity, and that's pretty much what has informed a lot of my choices.

That is a big turn-on for me, a director who knows what he's doing and what he wants, and knows when he's gotten what he wants.

I just wanted to be an actor. It's better to be well-rounded.

My approach to acting is that I am totally intuitive. I read the script and I get it. If I don't get it, I can't do it.

And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they're going to go and see the story you're in.
