thinking play giving
I love motion capture. I think it's the best thing, ever. It's wonderful. It gives you an incredible freedom to just play things out.
heart faint-of-heart
Making a movie with Lindsay Lohan is not for the faint of heart.
moving thinking order
Looking back is a form of insanity, given that I could really never understand what everybody else was thinking. I find these days that I'm much more efficient when I just focus on what I need to do in order to move my family forward and get the focus off me.
fans classic sci-fi
I'm a huge fan of classic sci-fi.
thinking way fantasy
I think that the way of bringing realism into fantasy is to treat it as the commonplace.
jobs firsts three
I never talk about a job before the contract is signed and I've shot the first three days.
fun guy good-guy
I love playing bad guys; they're always much more fun than the good guy.
watches series knows
I don't watch the beginnings of many series; I don't know why - maybe because I'm normally working.
running character long
A long-running TV series is a beast in that it demands you stick to one character over a long haul.
thinking guy focus
If we spent the majority of our focus just concentrating on our side of the street, not so much on what the next guy is doing, I think I'd get a lot more done - we'd all get a lot more done - and we'd probably have a lot less criticism for everybody else.
mean media actors
Money is tighter now, with the advertising dollar spread a lot more thinly across a whole range of media because of the Internet. It means the television networks have less power to produce shows, and TV is where most Australian actors make their money.
mind-your-own-business mind mind-your-own
Mind your own business.
thinking people feelings
I'm a person who doesn't necessarily enjoy feeling vulnerable, so I think my loved ones and my family make me feel vulnerable. Also, being connected with people when I'm working is a very vulnerable place to be.
running fun fighting
The funny thing is, the older I get, the less I enjoy talking when I act. I don't like talking anymore. I like behavior. All of the running and gunning, and the fights and the stunts, is just awesome fun.
