I never thought I'd be working with Sam [L.Jackson] .That's about as good as it gets.

Certain comedians work with certain actors; like Adam Sandler worked with Jack Nicholson.

I love to play real people... good people that I know the audience will get behind. It's the good people in the world that I gravitate to.

Young guys don't tend to want to portray people who have frailties or are less than macho.

Jackson doesn't bother to read the scripts anymore. He just checks to make sure he has one loud scene where he gets to shout, then cashes the paycheck.

I don't run around shooting people. Much. I only shoot two people a year. Maybe.

I think I've had my taste.I got to work with Sam [L.Jackson]. I can say I did it. I had my shot. I'd love to do something with [Robert] De Niro or Dustin Hoffman or Al Pacino. Those are guys I grew up watching. That would be wonderful. Now that I've gotten a taste working with a bona fide movie star, I think I'd be more prepared to go head to head with some of the big boys.
