I don't want to just do independent movies and I don't want to just do adventure films. I enjoy both, and I think both are cogent.

I love working with younger actors because they always come into the game full of energy and ideas that challenge me and keep me learning and stimulated.

How do you say one actor is better than another actor? You can definitely say that in the Olympics if it's the same race and someone wins the race. The only way to really do it and have it be sincere would be if you get all the actors together, and they're all playing the same part, and then you rate which one made you feel the most.

I like to work with young people, because young people haven’t had their dreams kicked out of them yet. Full of confidence, and imagination, and vision, and when they score that all gets empowered.

As I got older, with my work, I became aware of the responsibility of film, and I feel one of the best ways I can apply myself as an actor, is to go beyond movie stardom and celebrity.

I think it's no secret that I've tried to take chances in my career and also in my life, and I believe to not live in fear.

Celebrity is a word I take great umbrage with. I'm actively anti-celebrity.
