I do certain things that, maybe, nobody else knows why I'm doing. But it's all - it all has to do with - to grow as an actor.

You know, it was a small, independent movie and with Paramount becoming involved, it was obviously a good thing, but you can't put a round peg in a square hole.

I was looking to become more proactive with my career because I wasn't crazy with some of the scripts I was getting - this was before Blow and Hannibal - so I decided to start my own production company

I'm not a proponent of people watching a movie, and then going out and doing something bad. People have been doing bad things, well before movies.

You could just do independent movies, but I like bigger kind of studio movies, at least some of them.

You know, I started out really hot out of the box. Then I've definitely had and up-and-down career. And when things started cooling off again, it frustrated me.

If you start acting and you start thinking about and worrying about what other people are going to say about it, you'll never really fully commit to who it is and what it is that you're playing.
