It's not really a guilty pleasure, but I love old cartoons. I could watch Bugs Bunny and Tweety all day long.
I've broken my wrist, dislocated toes and shoulders, gotten stitches, you name it. However, the worst was a severely bruised femur. I got body checked into an open gate while playing hockey. The doctor couldn't believe I didn't shatter my femur.
I was playing a relatively high level of hockey, and I thought that's what I wanted to do. But I had my first movie audition, and I was hooked.
My dad's a jeweller, and my mom works for a bank.
It's a really incredible time to be working in television.
I'm a little worried about a Batman versus Superman movie just because it's... I just think it's really tough to pull off. I'm very excited about seeing it, but I think it's really tough to balance those two characters in the same movie.
It's nice to be playing a character who's never had a live-action version before.
Just being the first person to bring the character to life is really fun and exciting.
It's better to leave them wanting more than to be the show where people are like, "Oh, that's still on the air?"
I play hockey in a pickup league. I grew up playing, so it's nice to get on the ice whenever I can.
Everyone should have cheat days or days off. You need to balance the unhealthy with the healthy.
Luckily, I didn't get too beaten up before someone gave me a shot, but there were times when I was living on friends' couches and eating five-dollar subs from Subway almost every meal.
Every actor needs someone to take a chance on them.
My friends and family definitely helped me with the biggest obstacle in my life, which was just staying in L.A. long enough to really give it a shot.
