I actually got the part. And I thought, Well, I'll do it for a while. I'll just quit if it's stupid.

As a teenager, I was very much a people pleaser and that excludes being adventuresome at all. I was a Boy Scout though and so that's as adventuresome as I got.

I like playing really super-intense, live-in-the-moment characters. It asks me to not phone it in. It's impossible to phone it in. Every American boy has spent his childhood pretending to get shot.

I just want to do cool stuff.

Anything would deserve a sequel if the right elements are there.

I remember interviewing someone I actually felt bad for, and therefore didn't want to take an ironic stance against him. It actually turned out to be a really funny piece.

If anything, there's more at stake when you're older, and more responsibility and more legitimate things to worry about.
