Actors have an opportunity to use storytelling as a way to solve pain.

I always add a year to myself, so I'm prepared for my next birthday. So when I was 39, I was already 40.
way zeppelins embrace
I would like to find a way to embrace what Led Zeppelin did, in filmmaking.
father son chinese
We do see Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi and Chow Yun Fat, but it's very rare to see the Chinese male actor in Hollywood movies, which is something I take great umbrage with. You know, my son is Asian. He may want to direct one day; he may want to be an actor like his father - and I want that to be open to him.
acting lines actors
There's a fine line between the Method actor and the schizophrenic.
voice actors always-believe
I've always believed that the greatest actors are the ones that have the voices that are imitable.

Peter Fonda is the reason I became a motorcyclist. I saw Easy Rider and I bought a motorcycle the next day, and I rode it all the way from LA to San Francisco.

I know what it's like to meet someone you admire and have them be a complete jerk.
sexy fun chrome
Nobody can make a movie as exciting as Jerry Bruckheimer. When it's a Jerry Bruckheimer movie that it's going to have lots of chrome and gloss, it's going to be sexy, and it's going to be big and fun.
eight blood hands
I was always shocked when I went to the doctor's office and they did my X-ray and didn't find that I had eight more ribs than I should have or that my blood was the color green.
independent adventure thinking
I don't want to just do independent movies and I don't want to just do adventure films. I enjoy both, and I think both are cogent.
blue actors green
I do understand sometimes when actors say there's no one to talk to, or you can't react to, there's truth in that, but for me, I've always enjoyed green screen, and blue screen.
independent roots film
I came out of independent film, that's my roots.
brother cutting tennis
I actually enjoy working with green screen, because I can imagine all that stuff happening, and I really cut my teeth on a movie I made called "Adaptation" where I had to imagine four-page dialogue scenes with my twin brother, who was nothing more than a tennis ball and a gas stand.
