Divorce is fairly common these days, and I think many times people disregard the emotional impact that divorce has on a couple and a family, because it happens so frequently.

How did I end up in films with people like Keira Knightley... all these beautiful leading ladies and me - it's kind of shocking.

Talking to my wife, we stare at each other, saying, 'How is this happening? Why is this happening? Why now?' It's nothing I ever aspired to.

That's an interesting way to put it: an expectation of who you should be. More often than not, it's described as an expectation of who you are.

Being an action star is all I had ever hoped to be. I ultimately knew I would be an action star.

[And on going from character to leading actor] I don't approach anything differently; I just approach it as a character. I'm always astounded at the fact that I've ever played a leading character in anything [Laughs]. And my wife concurs with that, frankly. She always thought I would be, at best, the wacky neighbor on a sitcom, so this is all just a surprise and a joy.

I don't think of myself as funny - I don't fill up a room with my humor... I would fail miserably as a stand-up comedian.
