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 just know what it's like being an East Coast person, being from New Jersey.

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.

I like to think that even with some of the more intense ones sometimes there is humour in there, you try to make a complete human being, whether the guy is good or bad.

In college, I started out doing musicals and Shakespeare

I played pretend games as a kid, army, whatever, but I never wanted to be an actor.

My career has been up and down, and I like it much better being up.
