Nothing to me is unexpected. No disappointment is unexpected - whether it's movies or people or relationships. I'm always ready for the punch directly between the eyes. So I get hurt, but I never get hurt. Happens all the time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm looking for the unexpected. I'm looking for things I've never seen before.
Sometimes when you get disappointment it makes you stronger.
Sometimes your disappointments make you a stronger person for the future.
One of the things that I find so exciting about life is that you're constantly surprised. You never know what's going to happen, and it's certainly like that making movies; every once in a while, one will come along that transcends all of your expectations.
There's always something good to come out of disappointment: Comfort.
The funny thing is, I've never really hurt myself in an action movie. I've done 'Wanted,' 'X-Men,' 'Welcome To The Punch,' even 'Trance' to a certain extent has little bits of action and stuff, but I've never really hurt myself at all - not even like a sprained ankle.
The scariest thing in my life is the first morning of production on all my movies. It's the fear of failing, the loss of face, and a sense of guilt that everybody puts their faith in you and not coming through.
When I run into disappointment - say, for example, not getting a role I'd hoped for - I just try not to take it personally.
My favorite movies are movies that I go in and I leave deeply affected. Whether I laugh really hard or whether I cry really hard, I just want to feel really affected in that moment.
It's always good to have no expectations when you see a film. Then you can be pleasantly disappointed or surprised.
