Playing Willie Loomis was really fun for me because it was something nice and different to embody. It was neat playing this drunken servant who was hypnotized by Johnny Depp.
Robert Englund’s done an amazing job over the years playing Freddy. Everybody that’s a fan of ‘Nightmare’ loves Robert and you know so that’s a challenge when you’ve got to step in a big man’s shoes like that, so it’s scary but it’s also exciting.
One man’s magic is another man’s gluey torture session.
You can’t please everybody. All you can do is really just try to work from the heart and do the best job that you can and hope for the best.
I’m an actor, I worry about everything.
You know, at this point, my focus still is acting, but I think at some point in time, I definitely want to do some directing, I’m just not sure when. But it’s not on my plate big-time right now, just because I’m busy, and I’m having such a great time.
When you act, it’s better not to fake the emotion. It’s better to find the emotion within yourself and your experiences, and see if you can bring that back to the surface, so that you can then literally hand it off to the character, and then let him run with it.
My dad and me were incredibly close. He was an actor, and so him and I shared this whole movie-world thing closer than anyone else in the family.
