Physical roles give me a chance to learn something new.

I like to look strong and commanding.

Music is a very big participant in everything I do, from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed.

I knew who Leonard Nimoy was, and that he embodied what Star Trek meant to all the fans. But it wasn't until I started doing my research for this movie, and started going to fan sites, that I began to fall in love with these characters.

You find a way to work with people you have more in common with.

I'm a fan of the fan. I'm a fan of the active devotee who lives his life believing in something, who represents to me the character of a person that is very confident and sure of himself. Those are people I admire.

If there's any relevant influence we may have with an investor, with a studio, with a director, with an actor, I think we have to fight.
