I think anyone who's ever gone through adolescence and wanted something from their parents knows the basic tenets of a con.
I have, like, three suits to my name. But one thing I've learned is that when you dress up in real life, people treat you differently.
While I feel that I have a great reservoir to draw from as an actor for lots of different roles, it is difficult because it can be an industry where it's people's jobs to thin-slice you really quickly and try to fit you into a niche in the market.
I'm completely happy and fulfilled in my personal life.
I never feel more confident and comfortable than when I'm wearing a Tom Ford suit.
Theres always a need for new superheroes. As society changes, the types of superheroes will probably change as well.
Forget horror icon, Kety Bates is an icon. She's an acting icon. I was raised on so many of her films, everything from Misery to Fried Green Tomatoes to Delores Claiborne, all films that I've watched multiple times and been inspired by.
I see myself working, making a living and doing projects that I'm passionate about, regardless of the medium.
I'm a long time [Scott] Fitzgerald fan, as probably everyone in America is. And I've always been fascinated by that theme of, what is the price of the American dream and what parts of your soul do you walk away with? The conflict of art versus commerce was also very interesting to me.
The best experience for me at CMU was being on stage so much, getting that comfort ability and learning that technique you can use with any type of work because you’re comfortable with it and know your skill as an actor.
My standard uniform is a T-shirt and jeans.
Anybody who is rude to anyone in the service industry is automatically out.
To be honest with you, my physical state is usually dictated by the project I'm working on at a given time.
My favorite actors are people who I don't know anything about, and I can project any character onto them.
