When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.
We started training a month before the movie started and then by five months in, we were at our peak shape.
The stunts on the ground I can do, but I've never been good with heights.
I'm not one of those actors who romanticizes his trials working out and brags that he can bench press a panda now.
I'm not a hockey fan, which is probably why I had to leave Canada in the first place.
I like doing the mainstream, right-down-the-pike broad comedies as much as I like doing the kind of unorthodox different stuff.
I grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia.
I don't get a lot of romantic comedy scripts.
I'll say this: The media wasn't invited to my marriage, and they're definitely not invited into the divorce.
Buried is the strangest film I've ever done. I'll be the only person in the movie. So, I'm still trying to figure that out. I have a short but impactful amount of time to figure that out and that's all I'm doing when I get home. I won't bury myself, of course... that would be a sad end! And then the plan is to do Deadpool after that.
But if you do, then it's a high class problem to have. And if you do, you're the architect of that problem. There's no one else to blame but yourself. You've kept doing the same kinds of movies and that's what they want to see.
When I first moved to Los Angeles I came down there on a wing and a prayer in a way. I had about six weeks worth of money to make it there and that was just from doing a couple of episodes of the X-Files just to finance that trip. I got there and it is either you got to hit it or you got to go and, thankfully, I found a job.
I've always find that Aussies and Vancouver-ites in general just have a similar kind of attitude.
Bringing any movie together is a minor miracle.
