I was a big fan of Ron Howard of course, so it was fantastic to meet him.

And now it looks like I'm probably going to shoot a movie that I wrote. I got the money to do it, and I would star and all, because of being on Howard.

Men have been intimidated by my relationship with Howard. You know, it's hard for them to imagine that they could be number one, seeing this relationship.

I grew up watching Monday Night Football with Howard Cosell and the other guys with my dad.

Howard Hughes was obsessed with me. But at first it seemed as if he were offering me a superb career opportunity.

If I was to direct Ron Howard, I guarantee you, I would put him through a living hell every day. I would demand so much of him. We wouldn't quit until he leaves the set crying. Weeping! Spent!

Through movies, I have met nearly everyone I have wanted to, except Woody Allen.

There are so many people I would love to work with, like Al Pacino, Paul Newman, Gary Oldman - maybe Tom Cruise. I wanna play his brother in something - so call my agent!

I'm such a big fan of Woody Allen. I once tried staying at the same hotel as him, hoping I would bump into him!

The regular guy still relates to him and Howard is a $500 million guy now who dates a model and drives about in a limo all day. But Howard still knows how to make a plumber laugh and those guys still have him on in the morning, because he is a real talent.
