When you grow up on film, people sometimes have difficulties accepting the fact that you are growing up. They always imagine you younger.

I sort of grew up doing theater. And that's how I got into film, actually.

When you start acting as a child, you grow up ahead of your movies.

I grew up watching films. Film has been part of my life since I was a child.

I guess I'm growing up in the film world.

I'd been an actor in high school, and when I got to college, it was all about film.

There were six kids in our family, and I grew up fast. I had to do a lot of things on my own. I was a rebellious teenager. That's why coming into the film business was good for me because it gave me some discipline. Once I became an actor, I had to grow up a little more.

To be honest, the core reason why I became an actor was that I didn't want to go to school. That's where it started. I hated opening my history books and my English books, but then, of course, you grow older. I went to film school in New York, and that's when you really realize that you have to grow up now. It's not child's play anymore.

I went to film school at Columbia and did that for a couple years and really thought I was going to be a filmmaker, and then I kind of drifted over to the acting side after that. I'd been an actor in high school, and when I got to college, it was all about film.

Growing up, I just loved movies. It was how I saw the world, which I wanted to learn more about.
