Filmmaking in general is just really where I'm putting all of my energy.

I fell in love with Africa while I was there.

But on stage you're able to just take the character from one point to the end and it's a fluid, organic piece. It's about being completely present all the time, right there in the moment.

I love actors who are wonderful - like John Cusack and Russell Crowe, and wouldn't it be a treat to eventually direct them one day.

I believe over the last six years now, I've been learning in between actual acting moments on the show.

Maybe they say they do but I don't think many actors really enjoy trying to do a Shakespearean play.
