My tips for any budding actors would be to go out and see as much as you possibly can. Find the people you want to work with and be ready to hopefully make them want to work with you.

You can be playing a line some way and the director wants you to change that, or you can disagree. But I always think that the creative conversation between director and actor is what leads to good work.

Oh yes. I'm an actor, so I just learn my lines, and show up and do it. I gave it a little bit of thought.

As an actor, I've always been interested in making sure I can perform the role and the lines in the way the writer intended.

As an actor, you're in the hands of producers and directors. It's important to find out who you're working with.

As a director, you see something in someone; you know it's there, you just got to go get it. You do that with any actor. That's your job.

I don't really like to work with actors that work a lot and are very well established already. In a way, I like to nurture talent and have it burst on the scene.

I always want to do something I haven't done before and get to work with other actors, writers, or directors that I want to work with.

As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.

The majority of directors I've worked with didn't know how to talk to actors.
