When I'd finished, everybody said they wanted me for this movie. At first I thought they meant a nudie flick since an awful lot of nudies are made in Houston.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't want to do a movie, but Hollywood was going to do it with or without us.
No studio in Hollywood wanted 'Cold Mountain.' None. No one wanted 'Ripley,' no one wanted 'The English Patient.' That tells you there isn't really an appetite for ambitious movie-making out there.
'The Movie' is something that I made with some friends of mine in L.A. My friend, Luke Eberl, is the filmmaker. He shot this movie and asked a bunch of his friends to be involved with it. I just saw him the other day and there is no money to finish the film. But, you know, I literally have a cameo in it.
There were so many people who wanted me for their films.
Hollywood have been in touch; they want to make a movie of my life.
People ask me, 'What's your next film?' And I never know.
Where I come from, it was a heresy to say you wanted to be in movies, leave alone American movies.
I'm anxious to make another film.
I got 'The Grey' made because Liam Neeson wanted to make that movie.
I read that book, 'Lonesome Dove,' and I told my agent that they were gonna make a miniseries out of it and I wanted to be in it. I didn't care what part.
