It's part of your job as an actor to put your personal problems behind you and work. Good actors can do that.

Ridley Scott's company makes great work in whatever arena, whether it's movies or commercials or television. They just do really quality stuff, so you know it's going to be quality.

['John F. Kennedy] movie is based on a massive best-selling book, which is always helpful. And then the script was amazing and answered my question, "Why this? Why now?"

And the "why this" is the construct, which I think is sort of ingenious.
