We love making movies. We got into the business to make movies. At the end of the day, whether you're doing a low budget film or a big budget film, you want it to do well and you want people to see it. That's the whole point. You want to put some kind of message in it.
Honestly, I really, really love making movies. It's so much fun, and I love losing myself in the moment and just being there with other actors. When you're truly in the moment and you're feeding each other, it's such an exciting thing to be a part of.
I love going to the gym, sweating, running around, feeling like I'm having a heart attack.
I love New York. It just reminds me of so many movies... I look up at buildings, and feel like Godzilla should be climbing up them or something.
I'd love to do action-y types of films; you know, as long as they're good stories.
I love watching my brothers raise their kids and not have to do it for myself and have the responsibility.
I love my brothers' kids. It's funny - as an uncle, you become so protective of them.
I love getting into physical shape for a film; it makes me feel more like what the character needs to be.
I've worked with little kid actors before, and when they start crying or anything like that, it makes my job so easy, because you react. A little kid crying, there's not much else to do.
I used to have an afro - like Will Ferrell in 'Semi-Pro.' It was bleached blond from the sun. I was tall and awkward. I was not cool.
I used to wear my brothers' hand-me-downs, which were all too big on me.
I work with accent coaches a lot and try to do my best to get the Australian out of there.
My character's kind of grown up with Katniss. The beginning of the story, they're more or less brother and sister than anything. They're best friends. They've been keeping each other alive. It's a little frustrating, for the character. As the character, not as me.
Most of my friends surfed, so we would go before school, after school - literally, whenever we could.
