So I think what you see in this show is it's really not a just world at all, but you get what you give. So in terms of world view, I would say that's where the differences lie.
They're mutually incompatible I feel; being a wise thief and a wise father.
I worked with people I admire; Josh Lucas, who I'd worked with many many years ago on a pilot called The Class of 61 and Kurt Russell, and so there were a variety of different people that I enjoyed working with.
Comedy and I were never strangers, it's just that I was doing a lot of drama.
I'm always a fan of a good horror film.
I'm not a good enough singer to pull off the effect.
If the story's interesting and it's a compelling script, I'd be thrilled to be a part of it.
Drama was always clogging up the phone line. It's like that's what people call me for.
If you go back to the Conan the Barbarian series, I really liked that.
My family life and my ideals, my commitment to the community and to other people - all people - has been improved. I think less about myself and more about my community today.
It was good to travel to the other side of the world.
The only dangerous scene is when James Cromwell put a stake in my chest. But other than that, it turned out to be quite a punch. I didn't think much of it.
In older vampire films, they had to have actual prosthetic devices. Today, with special effects, we're able to create more stunning effects.
And I thought that was the best way for me to participate, because standing in the crowd and listening is a fantastic education, but it's not my nature. I need to be involved. So I did that instead.
