The world's gotten smaller by virtue of the Internet and new media.

To me, White Boy Shuffle is sort of like Catcher in the Rye, the story is so universal.

I'm really interested in having a studio one day and being a filmmaker.

The point is to expand the scope of what a movie can possibly mean or be, to get people involved because they're artistic or understand the point of the material, not just because they fit a certain bill aesthetically.

But I'm not particularly comfortable around guns.

In my career, I've often played the protagonist or the hero of the movie, and there are so many rules inherent to that role. The audience needs to stay with you, identify with you and like you. When you play the bad guy, those rules go out the window. There's so much freedom there.

A lot of producers cookie cut movies one after another, but I'll be a little more careful, and have the opportunity to be, because I have the acting career to subsidize the producing.
