Halloween has always been fascinating to me from a very young age. I think any actor would be fascinated by Halloween because it's one of the only holidays that advocates dressing up in makeup and costumes and transforming oneself.

I love all animals. I have a fascination with fish, birds, whales - sentient life - insects, reptiles.

I got into film acting because I wanted to be James Dean. We lost him at a very young age - he was only 24 - but I’m 51 going on 52, so there's only so many times you can act like James Dean. I had to find new ways of expressing myself that kept me fascinated with film performance.

Movies work, in my opinion, on the best level when they're more enigmatic, when we don't say it's this or that and where it raises more questions than answers.

I know what it's like to meet someone you admire and have them be a complete jerk.

I've always had a soft spot for comic books. I learned to read from them. The words in them were so interesting.

I've always believed that the greatest actors are the ones that have the voices that are imitable.
