I have consciously not taken the role of a gangster, which has been offered to me far too many times.

I'm actually one who will encourage directors to cut my lines.

As a director, I also get to sit and watch actors and learn from them in a way that I don't get to do when I'm just acting.

Every role is approached in exactly the same way, you have to make it believable and that's all. Acting is really serious, like, pretending really hard.

What's great is when you're working with somebody with whom you have a connection, it's exciting because there's a shorthand and you trust each other and you have a good time together on the set and so you can go a little farther than you might normally because you're with somebody that you trust.

I love directing - it's always so involving, so challenging.

I didn't know you had to change diapers so often. I couldn't believe it - we must change them 10 times a day - each. So that's 20 diapers a piece a day.
