running practice feet
I surprised myself with my ability to run. It's kind of like tippy toe running. I would not be able to outrun Indominus Rex, but with enough practice I might be able to make it 40 or 50 feet before I was killed.
hurt pain fall
The key is just to ignore the pain, because physical comedy only works if you see someone get hurt and they aren't actually hurt. If someone gets hit in the face with a bat, falls down, and gets back up, it's funny. If they stay down and their jaw is wired shut in the next scene, it's really tragic and weird. You have to pretend it doesn't hurt.
jobs mean reality
It's weird as actors because I mean we're fortunate in the group of people who have to spend time away from their families. There are men and women serving overseas who certainly have it a lot harder than we do, and there are jobs that take people away from the families, and that's a reality with some jobs that you have. One thing that's really difficult I find is the transition, because not only do you have to learn how to transition to living on your own again, there's a transition that happens learning how to live with somebody again.
games weird-things possums
I've eaten weird things through the course of my life. I've eaten wild game, I've eaten possum - possum's no good.
one-day looks ifs
If one day someone came up to me and was like, 'Look, you're never going to act again,' I don't know what I would do.
people looks
People have told me I look like Gordon Lightfoot.
morning kids son
I was sowing wild oats and doing the kind of things that you should do when you don't have kids. Now, I'm just doing less of that, but I earned it, you know. I feel like just spending quiet evenings with my wife and son and sitting in bed in the morning and watching him marvel over the curtains opening or whatever little thing. That all feels really good. And so, I've changed because I'm impressed.
people rifles goes-on
Some people fast, some people go on a cruise or visit a day spa. I get out in the woods with a rifle or a bow. That's my release.
television evolve mediums
Television is such an evolving medium.
oscars waiter
To go to the Oscars for 'Moneyball' - that was pretty amazing.
ice-cream ice sauce
You can pour melted ice cream on regular ice cream. It's like a sauce!
real drama character
I'm still fighting really hard to get any role I get. If it's comedy, I go for the laughs. And if it's drama, I try to tell the truth, and try to play the real stakes of whatever scenario the character's in.
bills
I'd love to work with Steve Martin. I'd love to work with Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd.
ideas pay way
I married way out of my pay grade. I have no idea how that happened.
