Usually in features, I'm the lead. I consider the director the captain, but I consider myself the first mate, and it's up to me to keep in contact with the heart of the crew.

I also really like getting to know our crew members better.

I much prefer the company of the crew, the sort of 'blue-collar working person.' I much more have that sensibility than what the public perceives as what a typical actor would have.

I've seen many actors go awry by making the wrong choices early on.

It's really kind of a challenge to keep coordinated with the two station crews that we'll be interacting with. And of course one of them launched quite some time before our mission.

As an actor... at some point you've got to forget that the crew's there in order to do your job.

There are lots of different reasons to choose roles.

There's really one character for every actor. The voyage is to find that one character.
