I grew up in a very old-fashioned Roman Catholic, Italian-Irish family in Philly.
What gets celebrated gets replicated.
Our submission defines our authority.
Personally, I’ve made myself a very small window of what I enjoy in this business, which is I love being a big part of the storytelling process.
I’ve never heard of a comedy that hasn’t had reshoots, especially for the ending of a movie in a comedy.
You can tell if someone’s into you. You can feel the chemistry.
When I’m into a woman, I literally can’t stop staring. I’m like a little kid. I become completely entranced.
I loved the college experience of studying.
I definitely am a huge lover of comedy, and it’s only through doing so many comedies that I’ve realised how much of an influence they’ve been on me.
I don’t know if it’s animalistic or what, but men become like peacocks with their feathers up when women are around.
I have two beautiful dogs that I cherish.
I liked sports but I never really had the confidence. I was always coordinated and it came easy to me, but I didn’t have the confidence to go along with the physical skill.
I had size 12 feet when I was 10, so I thought I was going to be 6 8. My goal was to be able to dunk a basket. I wound up being 6 1 with size 14 feet. I got the raw end of the deal.

I used to work the graveyard shift.
I think he’s Will ’s partying a lot in Cabo. I think he’s running a brothel. I don’t know what he’s doing.
The only thing I hate are photo shoots. I just hate them. I don’t know why I cannot stand them.
Anything has a rhythm to it, comedy or drama. There has to be a musicality to it. And everybody can’t play the same instrument, ideally. But I think that we all have the same comedic tendencies, and that’s why it works. We all sort of agree with what’s funny.
It’s too hard to make a movie if you don’t care about what happens to it, or even what the product is. I can’t even imagine that. It’s not worth the time and effort if you don’t care about the product.
If you could change the neural pathways in your brain so that you could recall everything you’ve ever heard, taste, smelled or touched, basically from the womb on, and use it at your disposal, that’s an interesting concept.
