I write a story as if it were a letter to someone and essentially, that's what you do.

I love exploring the characters that I play, but the reason I sign on for something isn't the details of the story but the universal message.

When you sign onto something, you want the character to be redeemable and likeable, hopefully, and understandable.

I love bouncing my words off of someone else's, and the fact that writing a story with someone else guarantees you'll get something you never, ever would have written on your own.

Don't forget, you are the hero of your own story.

I'm lucky I had signposts in my life. At important times, I got pointed in the right direction by particular circumstances.

I sign a film based on the story, the role I play, and the maker.

So I'll write it, and then I'll find out that I actually wrote something that is utterly useless. You can't use it in the story and it doesn't fit. So I just throw it away. I've done that countless times.

If I signed it that is the way it really happened. I don't know of any individuals who are saying anything different. I have no idea what is going on with that.
