character play quality
Hence the genius of having Ken steer this ship as well. You have to invest these characters with a Shakespearian quality and not in a way that might disengage the audience but in a way that actually lets you play to an audience.
stories playing-around direct
There's not a lot of direct back story but you do get to see them playing around each other a lot.
voice different different-voices
When many different voices send you in different directions, you can't listen to your own.
people guy age
I didn't want people to go out wanting to go tool up against the bad guys (and at impressionable ages). I said, don't shy away from the violence or pull back on this, commit to this.
mean journalist written
History is written by victors and, occasionally, sensationalist journalists. I mean that with the best respect.
loyalty integrity character
It's all about the integrity of their characters. They [Marvel] care so much about the loyalty and integrity of each and every character and all of their stories. They trust and love their readership. They're the ones who have invested in these stories.
real news violence
You just have to open the newspapers in most Western news to see real violence.
action figures action-figures
I never thought I would get to have my own action figure.
girl numbers expecting
It really reminds me of the great movies of the 30's and 40's with huge sets and voluminous fireplaces you could walk around in. Glazed floors. I was expecting a Busby Berkley dance number. Big fanfare and all the girls coming out. I'd have joined in. It's got that scale, you know?
jeans gravity center-of-gravity
When you're wearing jeans, there's a shift in your center of gravity.
successful careers years
It is a tough business but if you get yourself in a situation like I, you can maintain a career over many years. That, to me, is a successful actor.
real book chance
They're {Marvel] the ones who have went out and bought the comic book whenever it came out. They're the real investors. They serve them. Having a chance to be part of that Marvel Universe is just - well, it is what it is. It's just fantastic.
emotional important natural
Humor is a very important thing. It is a natural predilection. It is an emotional release.
