I'm not just an actor born in L.A. I was born in the Griffith Park Hospital. You can't get any more clichéd than that.

A hundred million dollars in the art world is a substantial amount of cash to do anything.

I was looking for projects, as you always are, and I read this scene . . . and I'm in the Hollywood Hills. So I thought, 'This is interesting.' You have this setup that seems to be based in some reality and you can only wonder where Black's going to go with this.

New Mexico is my home. It has never been anything but home. The ranch has rivers and canyon, everything imaginable. I can ride, hunt and fish. At the same time, ranching is grueling, difficult work. It`s like acting, to be successful at it, you have to work hard. I take it very seriously.

Why do women get paid less money? It doesn't make any sense.

So it`s always helped me to have a foundation, an ideal to strive for and goals. It`s hard for me to be disciplined and plan things.

If you're in a hit movie, it's good to be in another hit movie straight away.
