Guys like Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Sacha Baron Cohen, they do things you love to watch. I like to do the other half.
I was just a lot smarter about not getting caught. I mean, I never stuck anything in my arm, but I certainly enjoyed my youth.
People have often asked if I'm gay because I don't go out of my way to spit and scratch and give people attitude.
Acting is just playing the violin in an orchestra. Directing is being the conductor.
Tony Hale is a devout Christian and is a complete retard when it comes to swearing. The script called for him to swear for about 30 seconds and he just couldn't do it.
I became an adult before I had a kid, which I highly recommend. I just like to throw her around. She's a really good snuggler, and she likes to give kisses and hugs.
I don't worry about people misinterpreting my kindness for weakness.
Not many get a chance to hit the career re-set button.
Jennifer Aniston and I have always just really gotten along well... I was just fortunate to be a good fit for parts in her films.
When you're actor, you have no idea how much work goes into pre-production. We're just sitting in our trailers waiting for someone to knock on our door to go to the set.
If I'm enjoying something, I'd like to be able to just have it all. Frankly, that's the way I'm approaching my career now. I'm a total workaholic.
I played a ton of team sports growing up, and team wins are just incredibly gratifying.
I only wanted to get married once, so when I felt I was ready to handle it, I looked at my relationships and noticed that boyfriends get tired of girlfriends, and vice versa, but you never get tired of your friends.
I think you get the parts that people are comfortable with seeing you play. I get that. And I don't shy away from those parts.
