I would love to explore film seeing as I have prominently been on television. It would be nice to change it up and focus on film a little bit.
I loved, loved, loved the fight that I got to do with Matthew Bomer, who plays Bryce, when we did the fight scene that was back to back in the Buy More.
Marriage is a very complicated machine. When it breaks down, you can't fix it with one screw.
I've been lucky enough to get a taste of the feature film world, the TV world and Broadway, as well, and see what everything is like. For me, it's very much about the character and how different it is from something I've done earlier.
I know that one of the distinguishing things was I looked like I could hold a gun, even though I'd never held one before and I'm physically able to do the martial arts and all that stuff.
I was pretty nervous when I met Robert DeNiro. I kind of felt like a kid in a candy store for the first time. I couldn't wipe the grin off of my face. But Bobby DeNiro was really, really sweet and made me feel very comfortable. He's very low-key and just a superstar professional, and totally someone to be admired.
I guess I am a bit of a traditionalist.
It's good to kind of go up and down with the love thing.
I'm scared of karaoke. I think if I did have a go to karaoke song, it would be 'Whatta Man' by Salt-n-Pepa.
I've been very physical my whole life. I went out hiking and camping for days in the Australian forest, and when I trained at drama school for three years, we did a whole lot on stage - fighting techniques. And I was a dancer from 5 to 18, so I have a memory for choreography.
I'm pretty gross. When I talk I can be gross and crude.
