The thing that's so exciting when you're making a film is that it can be anything and there are no limitations on it.

If I eat a huge meal and I can get the girl to rub my belly, I think that's about as romantic as I can think of.

You can't make a movie for everybody. You can't go into it trying to alienate people, but you have to assume that you're going to.

I just have my own taste, and I just try and stick with that. I'm just trying to play as many characters as I can for as long as I have an opportunity to.

I grew up Mormon. I wasn't really Mormon, my parents were.

All my characters are me. I'm not a good enough actor to become a character. I hear about actors who become the role and I think 'I wonder what that feels like.' Because for me, they're all me.

I never was that boy who loved gangster films, but when I was growing up, I was obsessed with the detective Dick Tracy. It was one of my favourite movies as a kid, and he really inspired me. I would have loved to be part of that golden age of Hollywood in the 1940s. It made me want to become an actor.
