As much as I would love to be a person that goes to parties and has a couple of drinks and has a nice time, that doesn't work for me. I'd just rather sit at home and read, or go out to dinner with someone, or talk to someone I love, or talk to somebody that makes me laugh.
I used to joke I was a point-and-click actor. My whole process has been about trusting your instincts and hitting your mark.
I met Elijah Wood once, I met Peter Jackson, I met Orlando Bloom, and they're all really cool.
There were some parts of the film [Swiss Army Man] that the Daniels [Kwan and Scheinert] really wanted to look as elegant as a piece of ballet. As Hank and Manny go on in the story, they get better and better at being with each other and more and more adept - Hank knows more and more what Manny's going to need at any given point, and having that choreography helps a bit.
Go boldly and honestly through the world. Learn to love the fact that there is nobody else quite like you.
I'm very comfortable discussing my personal life, because it's so boring.
I meet hundreds of people, and I'm not going to remember them. But every single one of them will remember their interaction with me.
I was fortunate enough to meet Sophie Dahl. And I'm slightly in love with Scarlett Johansson: she's just stunning. And she's bright, which is incredibly sexy.
That's why I don't understand why actors become arrogant and are completely unapproachable - because as an actor, the most valuable thing you can do is talk to people and hear their stories, because it'll all come in handy.
I definitely want to have kids. I've grown up around lots of people who were having kids when I knew them, because a lot of them were a lot older than me. And I saw the wonderful change in them.
I think it would be very hard to go out with an actress, because they're mad. Some actresses are just insane. I've never worked with a nasty actress - they're all absolutely delightful. But completely barking.
If you look at each individual part of my face they look exactly like part of my face. Together it's surreal.
It's been an odd five years, but it's been great,
I'm getting better now, but I used to be incredibly awkward with girls, ... I think any guy who says 'I've never had an awkward moment with a girl' is a liar.
