When you shoot a movie so quickly you can't really afford to shoot a bunch of extra footage because you don't have that luxury.

For me, I always have to establish a reality for the character. In very actor-y terms, you just have to understand his reality.

A wide receiver like me wouldn't have won. The quarterback - or even the running back - always wins.

I like the not knowing of what the next job is.

For me, it doesn't matter whether it's a comedy, a Western or horror. As long as you've got a good story to tell, the genre almost doesn't matter. As an actor playing the role, it's all rooted in reality.

I always grew up around acting. I did commercials as a kid and all that kind of stuff and my oldest brother did theatre in High School. It's funny, when I was 15 I had a friend of mine who dragged me away to a camp at Boston University. It was the first time truthfully that acting didn't feel presentational; it felt very personal. I didn't just feel like I was singing and dancing for my friends in High School. It felt like I was doing a scene and all of a sudden I started to feeling something - I started to feel emotional.

I think you have to pick and choose what is most important to tell the story.
