I think character is real important. And you know, and I think the public does.
I never try to pander to an audience, and I'm really not concerned with my image. I'm far more interested in stretching my abilities as an actor.
Good parts should always scare you a little bit, and good parts... you might not get advice to do them.
I think of myself as an actor first, not a sex symbol. Do I think I'm sexy? No, that's someone else's judgment, and I honestly don't think you can try to be sexy and really succeed.
Saber River was a darker story. That character was at a darker point in his life and was carrying a secret that was kind of eating away at him.
His announcement was so typically Chuck -- he did it with grace and dignity and intelligence, ... Wolf Blitzer Reports.
I'm very proud of Quigley and I love playing Jesse Stone. That's not hype. We've got to do about fifty of these, but there are only five books.
I had a fantasy of being a pro baseball player, and I've gotten to play a Major League Baseball player (in 1992's 'Mr. Baseball'). I loved Westerns as a little kid and I get to do them. I even get to die as an actor and then you just go home and have dinner. It's great. So now, I'm not a candidate, but I play one on TV and I'll be home for dinner.
In the book, he's in his mid-30s and 5-foot-10.
If I can be an advocate of individualist solutions to our society's problems that are affirmative solutions, that's to me what conservatism means.
It's intimidating to play the nominee for president. The little kid inside you says, 'I'm not enough.' I would guess that happens to politicians, too. They go, 'C'mon, who am I kidding? I'm just this guy or this woman,'
I've got nothing against this particular set of candidates, but I do think we're not seeing enough of who they are, ... We're kind of seeing who they and their handlers think we want them to be.
I praise CBS for taking a risk, which is always the price you pay for opportunity. This is not standard movie of the week storytelling. I think movies of the week have fallen into a niche and that isn't my niche
Popularity is the pocket change of history. The true measure is courage. There will never be another Charlton Heston.
