I don't think movies are the reason why this violence exists, I think it's going to happen whether movies are there or not.

That was one of the reasons why I wanted to tell the story of Colin Price. I saw someone in this fictionalized political character that was trying to do something important for his city. He meant well, but then you see that the human flaws had really derailed his past. It seems to be happening more and more in our country. I wanted to hold a mirror up to that.

Actors have an opportunity to use storytelling as a way to solve pain.

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.

I've acted professionally since I was 16.

When I act, I hear it like music. In my head, I hear the dialogue like music.
