I always had an actor within me.

Sometimes people know I am an actor but are not really sure what I have been in.

As an actor, you are always looking for something fresh and interesting and not ordinary.

I go to the movies a lot, and I regret when I see some actor that I used to like, to find them offering no more surprises.

You have actors you've worked with previously, and you have actors you haven't worked with that you've seen in things where you know they can work in these parts. And then there are actors who blow you away, who surprise you.

I'm a character actor - always have been, always will be - and historically, character actors don't come into their own until later in their professional and chronological lives.

I've always been interested in films where you can identify with the actors. Where you can be in their shoes and therefore be more involved if they're people that you recognize.

I went from being totally unknown and never acting professionally to being in a major movie and being very famous. It all happened so quickly, I didn't have any time to work things out. It's been pretty scary at times.
