I’m a pretty gentle person so I don’t really have much of a thing of being a badass.
With TV, you have so much to get done during the day that you don't really have a lot of time to feel your way through it. I know before I walk on the set exactly what I'm going to do. With film you can kind of find your way in it a little more, play with it some.
I was that 'awkward-didn't-understand-his body-kind of-uncomfortable teen.'
I picked up reading late because I grew up dyslexic. When I went to college, a friend who was a big reader got me started on a number of writers, including Hemingway.
I dream about having a house by the water and not doing anything, not feeling ambitious, nor having the need to make money.
A month before graduation I got an off-Broadway job. Then I did some commercials, including one for MCI. You can only see half of me, but it paid well. Thank God for commercials.
It's the writers' job to make it positive. It's my job to make it real.
I grew up in a house with dogs. We always had dogs. We always had a bunch of dogs, actually.
I'd forgotten it's an important thing to give thought to your morality and how you intend to live your life.
I should probably never describe myself as adorable.
