kings actors cables
On cable now, the writer is king. Any actor chases that.
strange opinion internet
You know, its really strange now with the Internet, with everyone having an unsolicited, anonymous opinion.
long dumb boards
Working with Jim Carrey is an absolute gas. I have never laughed so hard for so long. Had he been on-board for the sequel of Dumb & Dumber, I would've jumped on, with no hesitation.
sports daughter stupid
We've got a pretty close family. Just ended fourteen years of travel hockey with two boys. My daughter was always a part of that. So there's a lot of trips to the hockey games. As I tell idiotic, stupid, youth-sport parents, it's about the drive there and the drive back, not about the trophy or how your kid played. We've always had a good relationship with our kids. You're driving with them and talking to them at the age of eight. It became this adventure and they learned to love it. You connect, you really do. It's not for every family
done roles dramatic
I have done all of the genres, and the dramatic role is my favorite.
writing actors want
Every actor just wants good writing.
needs attention noble
One of the more noble things the Oscars can do is pay attention to movies no one knows about. Blockbusters don't need much help.
stars want flaws
Stars don't want to have flaws. Stars like to be likable.
art games video
You see a lot of these movies that are really just 90-minute video games. The effects are incredible. I get it: There's an art to that, terrific. I'm not interested in it, but there's an art to that I suppose.
singing actors music-industry
Well, the music industry is littered with actors who belatedly came to singing.
writing play giving
Give me good writing, and I'll play it all day.
pages
You can't rewrite nothing, but you can rewrite 90 pages of sh*t. Now you've got your sh*t on the page, you can go work.
action emotion humans
We're all capable of anything as human beings. Any emotion, any action. We really are.
girl new-york moving
I would love to [do theater], but there are go-to girls for theater. I am learning that, upon moving to New York and inquiring. There are go-to girls that will get the role any day of the week. It's true. Some people won't even let me audition.
