I'm finishing my Ph.D. in Italian Renaissance history.

I'm just gonna be real grateful to be on any freaking movie set for the rest of my life.

My career was always full of risks one way or another, and that's the way I like it.

I don't care for horror and fantasy films. I never go to see them in the theater. I know I've played in many of them, but I didn't do them because of their genre - I did them just because I loved their scripts.

There is a good news and bad news about a remake. When you remake something, if you futz with the theme, you are in danger. Because people get it - they get the theme. They know what is galvanizing, what is energizing.

If you've got kids you know you've only got one prayer: "Let my kids outlive me." That's the bottom of everything.

The best reason to go to the movies is to be with other people. Eating the popcorn, being with other people you don't know.
