dad scripts firsts
The script for 'In Good Company' was the first one I ever showed my dad.
writing editors stories
I don't want to be an editor! I don't want to direct; I'd be a horrible director. I don't want to write - I have a 'story by' credit on one film I did. And I don't want to edit at all.
new-york spring thinking
Sometimes I get mad when I think that I only have maybe 40 or 50 more springs in New York. When I miss one, 'cause I'm on location for a film, I wanna go, 'That's it, that just cost me one of my 50!'
baseball knowing actors
That's the best thing about being an actor. If you're in a baseball movie, you walk away knowing way more about baseball, or if you're in a sci-fi film, you learn way more about Comic-Con, and so I loved all that.
writing would-be weakness
I would be a terrible director, I could never write anything. One of my great strengths is that I know all of my weaknesses.
editors want would-be
I don't want to be an editor - I want to be really forward about that. I would be a horrible editor.
peers tricks harder
I certainly like working harder than a lot of my peers. The trick is embracing it.
fun character thinking
The whole acting thing is a buffet. One, in terms of role choice and movie choice, I like to do lots of different things, and I think that's the whole fun of it. But I also see it as a buffet in terms of the character.
character good-movie scripts
The script is a blueprint for the film - there are very few bad scripts that make good movies. If you really like the character and understand the utility it serves within the movie, that's a part of my process.
training shows 70s-show
I really loved when I started doing '70s Show,' though I had never acted before, so it was a great training ground being on a sitcom.
needs therapists
I really need a therapist.
actors social my-friends
I'm very social. It's just most of my friends are not actors.
film hard
It's hard to understand the films that you're in, because you never truly get to see them.
home childhood folks
My folks still live in my childhood home, and so when I'm home with them, I usually feel the best.
