People have their complexities. They have their heroic moments and their villainous moments, too.
When I exhale, I just turn right into Louie Anderson.
I think you have to let go of this idea that you can be precious about everything, and let it be the abstract mess that it is.
I noticed while working on Green Lantern that the actor - albeit forefront in the film, obviously, and the key focus for the audience - is kind of the smallest cog in the machine when you're shooting.
Michael Keaton had a great, great career. I do remember when I was a young guy thinking about him, about how he'd had the chance to do it all, so yeah. But, there's nobody where I've said, "Man, I really want that guy's career."
I firmly believe that you can't manufacture chemistry with anyone, let alone a kid.
The best directors I've worked with, they all have the same thing in common. They're the first to say, 'I don't know.' If you ask them, 'How are we actually pulling off this movie?', they'll just shrug and go, 'I have absolutely no idea.'
There are so few surprises left in life. We've gotten so addicted to knowing. It's the Google generation. We want the answer to everything right now!
I've always just liked working. I like being a working actor.
I think we can all use a little more patience. I get a little impatient sometimes and I wish I didn't. I really need to be more patient.
I remember exiting the birth canal and suddenly I was in a film. But you are never really in charge of that. The movie came out about five or six months ago in America. It was Miramax in the States and Disney here [fakes falling asleep]. What happened. I love working for Disney, not Walt specifically because he couldn't be more dead, but the company is fantastic
I'm terrified that I'm genetically predisposed to only having boys. That's frightening. By the time I was 10 years old, and I'm not exaggerating, I knew how to patch drywall.
I'm pretty good at surprising friends and family with gifts. I tend to go towards the more sentimental side of giving.
If you're going to commit to that, you're going to have to find some way to make it bearable and enjoyable.
