You should know the lines, be prepared, get sleep, and have the script analyzed so you're ready to rock and roll.

Many times, I like to read the script before I even know who they want me to play, so I can read it and really enjoy it as an audience member. I think that's given me the ability to ferret out the really special scripts from all the rest.

Everyone hooks up with George Clooney. He's a genuinely cool guy. He's using his powers for good.

I love directors who talk action as opposed to emotion.

Directors work 10 times harder than anyone else. Get paid a quarter.

The emotions will take care of themselves. You don't have to prod them along. As a matter of fact, you get in trouble when you prod them along.

When I was in New York, I was making a living. We had a summer house and a car that I could put in a garage. That's something for a stage actor.
