Maybe I'm just lucky I'm not working with any assholes... yet.

Why things get canceled or not is so unbelievably out of actors' hands that it's one of those things where you've just got to ride with it.

Of course, on every job there are moments where you're not having fun.

I really had spent my whole life playing soccer, and the fact that I was willing to give that up for theater, that told me I was moving in that direction.

I was spending three days literally just kibitzing with Jack Nicholson at a table! It was heaven! And talk about a normal guy. My God, he was just so real and cool and relaxed and fun. And he was a great performer. He's such an actor. He really was so focused on every moment. It was great.

Everybody else, they're wonderful, but [Robert] Duvall sets the tone for all of cinema acting. So just to be in his space was amazing.

I don't usually get to play somebody who is, at least, nominally in charge. I'm usually playing somebody's lawyer or a doctor.
