The script is a blueprint for the film - there are very few bad scripts that make good movies. If you really like the character and understand the utility it serves within the movie, that's a part of my process.

I'm very social. It's just most of my friends are not actors.

I certainly like working harder than a lot of my peers. The trick is embracing it.

I feel bad for young actors who become huge stars too quickly, because you haven't had a chance to practice your craft a lot.

I would be a terrible director, I could never write anything. One of my great strengths is that I know all of my weaknesses.

I'm not just friends with fellow actors, but I find that a lot of people are out here in L.A. I go out of my way to make sure that's not the case, but I do have a lot of friends who are actors.

It is strange when you're a loser in college, which I was, to then get your own show.
