I feel much more comfortable as a writer than an actor. I feel like I am a much better writer than I am an actor.

Good comedy doesn't have to be a comedy idea.

When it came to, like, appropriate behavior towards one another, it was - I was well-versed.

I have become a giant fan of the testing process, especially with a comedy. I mean, they tell you what's funny. It's almost tailor-made for people who shoot the way we shoot, trying a million different options and versions of things. Because the audience doesn't laugh at a joke, we put in another joke. If they don't laugh at the next joke, we put in another joke. You just keep doing them and you can get the movie to the point where every joke is funny, if you have enough options in the can.

I read the script [ of 'Steve Jobs' movie ], and it was very, very good. I wasn't sure they would want me to be in the movie, but I auditioned for it. Which I hadn't done in a few years. But I had auditioned in the previous few years for another movie that I did not get the part. And so my track record wasn't good. But I really wanted to audition because I was worried that I was going to blow it, and I wanted it to be on them for choosing me.

I'm used to really struggling and facing a hard time to get things going, until I'm comfortable at all with them.

I'm the person who writes most of my movies so every role is exactly what I want to be doing.
