What draws me to roles, I think, are moments - moments that define character, where so much more of the story is told in just a moment - a look, a line, a short scene, but something that speaks a volume, something that speaks to me.

I think I've been really good at surrounding myself with really talented people. I've picked the right coattails to ride on.

I think that acting can be a very pressurized existence. So when I'm not working, I spend very loose and unpressurized time and I like to meet people who have a similar attitude.

It's hard to shake a stick at success.

I want my job to include a little adventure, a little more of a heightened reality than what I'm actually living.

I want to be a working actor; I want to do jobs that excite me and challenge me, and I want to something fun.

The truth is I'm a dork. I collected comics. I still love cartoons. I'd rather be at home on a Friday night than out at some club… My sense of humor is that of a geek. My likes and dislikes are that of a geek. I've memorized every crappy sci-fi movie there is, but still haven't seen Schindler's List.
