You just have to go to bat and take a swing. And if you're not right for a part, or it goes to a British man, they may remember that you showed up, knew your lines and were good. And maybe they'll call you in for something else.

They give you a round bat and they throw you a round ball and they tell you to hit it square.
I'm not afraid to swing the bat. If they elect to pitch to me, I'm going to swing. I'm not as picky as Mr. Sheffield. I'll swing at something over my head.
I give a lot of instruction in training. It's difficult for me to do the same in matches, so I need guys on the pitch to read the game, to understand what we want.
Are you tall? Are you strong? How big are your hands? You must be honest with yourself or you will end up using the wrong bat.
As a young actor, I booked a movie in the U.S. I didn't speak any English at the time, so I learned my lines phonetically when I auditioned for it.
I'm not into that method acting thing. I just turn up, say my lines and go home.
People recite lines to me all the time, anywhere I get recognized.
I have to understand the rules here in England.
Here in America, people come out to see what they've known you to do. In England, it's like everyone comes out to tell you exactly how well they think you're doing.
You got the ball in your hands and you're in command, and if you get your good pitch where you want it, nobody's gonna hit you.
