I have a very strong political outlook, and that is something I'd like to take more responsibility for in my life. I don't believe in utilising certain aspects of the power I have with celebrity to push that forward, but I would like to make some films that address some of those political issues.
You can't ask the press to service you with everything that they have and not expect some of the other stuff in return if you're going to live your life like I have.
I'm federal agent Jack Bauer, and this is the longest day of my life.
I turned to the only guy I could trust, Tony.
We saw that the music industry was changing and we felt that it needed to change. We have wanted to do this for a very long time.
We saw so many phenomenal Rock 'n Roll bands that were not getting signed. We really needed to start looking outside the box.
First, there was darkness, then came the Strangers,
The graphics are the really freaky thing. I have two stepsons who are really good at the games, and they saw the likenesses. They had a gleam in their eyes, and I could see that the reason they liked it was because they could play to a point and then just stop, and I would get wasted. I think there's a certain amount of joy in, like, 'Let's watch him get shot again! Do it again!' You can make him really get riddled.
The timing issue is something the writers are working on right now. But the sky's the limit at that point for them, because we would not be restricted by the time element.
Some people think it's because '24' was jump-started by what happened on 9/11. That was never why we made the show. We started production six months prior to 9/11, and we'd already done ten episodes.
You're going to tell me what I want to know. It's just a question of how much you want it to hurt.
I don't have to follow your orders. I don't work here anymore.
My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.
I have a tendency to sometimes get a little serious when I'm working, and it's impossible to do around her. I think she's an extraordinary actor and she kind of almost betrays that sometimes because she's got all this energy.
