But I did have two months off between Loser and the start of Prozac Nation. So, it was supposed to be Jason time, right? My time to enjoy myself away from movies.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I truly loved Jason Reitman. I was there on his first film, 'Thank You For Smoking,' and I'd go work with him to do anything.
And although I've been very fortunate in the film work that's come my way, I need to get back to the stage. If I'm away for a maximum of two years, I feel something's wrong.
Jason's got a family, so it's difficult for us to get together.
I'm actually in my 22-year-old son Jason's band, After Midnight Project. The music is like Coldplay-ish rock.
Everything's cyclical. Having been raised by actors, I watched their careers, and the challenge is to take time off.
I gave myself two months to book a job. One month later I was cast on 'Modern Family.'
One of the wonderful things about 'Jason Bourne' and that franchise is getting to work the same people sporadically and over the course of many years. I'm not so keen on having to get to know a whole group of people.
When I got '227' and broke out from the rest of the cast, I became a workaholic, and I was very lonely.
Thirty-five percent of all my dates were at the movies from 2013 to 2014.
So we had psychiatrists and counselors and therapists around the set regularly, especially for those scenes in which Jason would be dealing with a patient to make sure we were doing it all appropriately.
