If life isn't about human beings and living in harmony, then I don't know what it's about.

I remember one time that I was filming a scene in whych my character rides through Troy on a chariot. I just looked around at this incredible set thinking 'This is the life'.

The thing about fame, is you never think it's going to happen to you. So when it does, it's sort of a shock. Some people are just better at it than others.

Someone tried to save my soul in a gas station.

I feel really privileged to be an actor, to be paid to do something I love

I crave working on those small independent movies because I love going to see those myself.
