I like working with a first time director. I'm more likely to work with a first time director than I am a second time director.

I like to work as an actor. Not just for money, but because I really enjoy acting.

Words are words, but the way an actor says them, the way it's framed, puts you either in the world that looks a lot like ours or one that doesn't seem a lot like ours, one that can be farcical or one that can't.

Four hours of makeup, and then an hour to take it off. It's tiring. I go in, I get picked up at two-thirty in the morning, I get there at three. I wait four hours, go through it, ready to work at seven, work all day long for twelve hours, and get it taken off for an hours, go home and go to sleep, and do the same thing again.

I frequently gravitate toward characters that have some urgency or soul.
