I hate that word — 'lucky.' It cheapens a lot of hard work

I feel really lucky, although I hate that word - 'lucky'.

That's one of the things about theater vs. film - with theater, actors have a little more control, and one of the disappointing things about films is that once you're done shooting, anything can happen, you know?

So I won't say I'm lucky. I'm fortunate enough to find or attract very talented people. For some reason I found them, and they found me.

I think if actors are successful at one thing, they paint themselves into a corner sometimes, and what's the fun in that?

I like playing the guy on the sidelines. They have more fun.

I love animals. All animals. I wouldn't hurt a cat or a dog — or a chicken, or a cow. And I wouldn't ask someone else to hurt them for me. That's why I'm a vegetarian.
