Dick Wolf made me an offer I couldn't refuse,
I don't do a hell of a lot of publicity. I find it nauseous. I feel like a blithering idiot and your friends are laughing at you.
'Law and Order' is completely story-driven and completely characterless, really. If you do that format for five years and you're an actor, you're bound to get bored. It wears on you. And it was really wearing on me.
It's terrible. We're starting to look like Hong Kong, or Singapore at worst. Pretty soon you won't be able to throw a piece of gum on the street.
We need healthy forests if we want to protect our climate. As the climate changes, forests become more vulnerable to insect outbreaks, droughts and wildfires. Simultaneously, when our forests are destroyed, their carbon is released back into the atmosphere, further impacting climate change. It's a horrifying one-two punch.
I jumped into acting because it was fun. It was tougher when I had to take my fun seriously.
As an actor you appreciate the security of a job. But I don't ever want to get too comfortable.
At this point in my life, I like the security of a job, while still having time for my young son and to pursue other creative work.
I don't want to be identified by any one role I do.
We talk about, you know, diet and that we shouldn't give our kids big things and obesity and fast food. Well, you know there are people who don't have that problem because they're not getting any food! We have so many deep problems and issues facing humanity.
Why don't we save time and you just tell me what I want?
By my third year of Law and Order, I was climbing the walls. But you don't leave a hit show, especially when you have a five-year contract.
No one ever takes my side.
