I’m an actor because I love movies, and always have loved movies. I’m a film buff. So, getting to work with those kinds of directors and getting to tell those stories is what I want to do.
For me, the drive is storytelling. To be a part of an art that tells a story and to be a catalyst, a color in that, is very exciting.
When I was a little kid, my parents would show me Marx Brothers films and westerns and stuff like that. Thats where all my desire to be an actor comes from and probably most of my understanding of acting comes from for sure.
I feel about romance the same way I do about a vocation; it’s a calling.
I really want to be a part of those movies that say something good to a lot of people.
I’ve definitely been spoilt. Every movie I’ve done, it’s always the same criteria: finding a great story, and finding a great part to play.
There’s a lot of complicated magical reasons why I’m not at the party that are too long and semantic to go into.
I did my first film with Francis Ford Copploa which spoiled the hell out of me.
I want to make movies that people see. I really think that movies are the most popular form of story telling ever and have such a huge impact on culture when they do.
