I think I'm much too earnest to be as cool as 'Boyd Crowder'.

Quentin [Taranino] will say, "We've got it, but we're gonna do it one more time. Why?" And then, the entire cast and crew chimes in and says, "Because we love making movies!" He is a person who celebrates this form of expression, and it is evident in his movies, his conversations, his extensive knowledge about the history of what we do, and the actors and crew that he assembles.

I do not have the angst and the anxiety of my youth. I've gotten to a place where I'm very comfortable with who I am.

T I was doing Predators, this new movie for FOX simultaneously, and this character that I play in the movie is "Walter Stands," and I had a plethora of ink all up and down my skin.Once you have ink on your body, how it informs you as an actor, and you kind of get in that space and occupy that space of that character, when you're without them, when I'm just Walton Goggins in the world and I'm without my tattoos, I feel a little naked.

I really believe that when you're playing a character that everything is contained in the script. If I'm pulling from things from my own life, then I think I'm being disingenuous to the character and the story.

I listen to music cinematically. I think about music and how it would make me feel when it's put to an image, a moving image, and I love it.

If you ever get the opportunity to work with Quentin Tarantino, you had better believe that it will be an experience of extremes.
