All of the actors that have served to me as inspiration over the years have been those more associated with dramatic work who have, in turn, been able to embody their characters and lose themselves in those characters that they create.

There are many actors I really like and whose work I admire.

I love actors, number one. There's probably nobody that you could name that I don't like, depending on what it is they're in.

There are so many young talented actors today whose work I respect and admire - Ryan Gosling is probably primary among them. I take inspiration from so many amazing actors.

The kind of actors I admire move through different characters and genres.

I admire a lot of actors; I think a lot of them have so much talent.

I'm largely interested in people who are just great actors, and they're not necessarily hugely famous.

There's no one actor in particular that I want to model my career after, except for the people who have been able to keep their career varied and who choose things that interest them. That opportunity is all I really want.

I've only had good experiences with actors. Starring next to them and directing them, for the most part they're all inspiring, special people.

I'm a fan of a very few actors.
