It's always more fun when something happens outside of a script.

What really makes it fun for an actor is when the script is good.

I feel like if you feel good about a script, and you feel confident about your ability to direct and just capture it right, it's all just, really, really in your favor there.

I'm a sucker for a funny script. And then, as soon as I don't wanna be, one comes along and grabs me.

Scripts are corny and predictable. Real life is always better.

Sometimes when it comes to the iconic kind of moments, when I read the script for the first time, you get little goose bumps or something because it really is kind of exciting.

If you get a script and it's really well written, that's always exciting.

With young people, it's how brassy and flashy can you be. But you get a bit older, it's about how restrained can you be. You have to feel it all, think it all, but you don't have to play it - it's just gotta be there, and if the story's good and the script's good, people will see it.

It's fun to improvise, but I still think it's better to have a great script, you know, like a Charlie Kaufman script.
