actors roles fit
I'm not one of those actors who gets physically fit for a role and then loses it all again.
heart home land
I'm fortunate enough with the surfing to be very much at home at the water - my pulse and heart rate are slower in the water than they are on land.
guy rooms elbows
I'm definitely an elbow-room guy.
space people freak
I used to get a sort of sociophobia, and I still get it sometimes these days when I'm in a confined space with too many people. It's not like I freak out or anything, it's just that I'm far more comfortable in my own company sometimes than being surrounded by one thousand strangers.
people favour actors
I'm not one of those actors who asks for too many favours. So when I do, people tend to listen.
workout gym
I'm very rarely in the gym. My workouts are predominantly outside, in nature.
art talking modern
That's something lacking in a lot of modern-day families - just talking. It's almost a lost art form.
careers high-standards standards
I have very high standards for myself and my career.
sense-of-humor knows ifs
I don't know if my sense of humor goes over Americans' heads.
hectic-schedule schedules hectic
I like to have a hectic schedule.
doors careers feet
Fortunately, now I've got myself in a position where things are about story and not money. In my earlier career, it was more about getting my foot in the door and to get enough money to live, to be perfectly honest.
going-out intrigue promoting
Going out there and promoting myself socially doesn't really intrigue me. I'd much rather have my work do it for me.
blood years two
I make about two movies a year outside the 'True Blood' schedule. I work on a great show six months a year, then outside that I get to satisfy whatever creative urges I have. It's a great position, especially for a single guy like me.
pride want boxes
I pride myself on breaking any box that anyone wants to put me in.
