But I do believe that there's going to be a time where all movies are going to be made in 3D and it's just going to be a given, and that is going to be an exciting time.
I love the 3D revolution. I love the technology today that continues to push the envelope, continues break the new ground, and continues to raise the bar.
The whole idea is just to continue to make movies that I enjoy playing and that audiences are going to enjoy me in, just to put out quality on a lot of different levels.
The philosophy has always been pretty clean and straightforward which is if I see something that I like and I can see its value to the audience, its value to me, then I'm going to take my shot at it, regardless of the genre.
It doesn't matter what your name is!
When I was a kid, I was always enamored by - I appreciated the movies, and I was able to see them on VHS when I was a kid, but I was so enamored by the one-sheets and the posters. I had them in my room when I was a kid.
In my mind at that time, at 14, the men who were successful were Stallone and Schwarzenegger and guys like that - Harrison Ford - who were these men of action. I was like, "Okay, they're successful, they're not getting evicted, they built their bodies - I'm gonna go build my body." It was like that.
I'm more patriotic than I am political - I appreciate politics but I'm not quite too sure if that's a road I'm willing to go down.
I'm a passionate, hardcore fisherman. Biggest fish I caught? A 200-pound tarpon.
The Rock is going to lay the smacketh down on your candy ass!
Our reputations precedes us. If I know someone is not nice, not kind, an asshole - I generally don't want to work with them.
As an actor, you can have your own backstory and prepare all the details that you need to know for your character.
My goal as an actor is to grow and try different things.
There's something very cool as an actor when you have an opportunity to play somebody who's real, whether they're still alive or not, but who has lived a life.
