I know what's out there. I did a little of that running around. It left me bereft and bored, running around with a bunch of B-level models and half-ass movie stars.
I'm a detail freak. If I'm playing a Marine sergeant, like in Sergeant Ryan, I wanna know everything there is to know about being a Marine sergeant.
Even though it did well at the box office and I think my performance is fine, I thought ('The Relic') could have been a better movie.
I think I may be in - potentially - three classics. That sounds like I'm bragging.
I used to be very rigid because I just wanted to get through it. Now, if I think a scene should go a certain way and it goes another, I'm able to go that new way with ease.
I used to blame my problems on other people. But my moment of clarity, if you want to call it that, came when I was looking in the mirror one day and just burst into tears. It wasn't just that I looked bad, it was that I knew my problem was me.
I like to touch things. In my house I have a lot of velvet drapes and thick, lush couches.
I shot a couple of movies in jail, but I was never in jail.
I was a wayward kid, a rambunctious and angry teenager, but I found acting as a fifteen-year-old.
I didn't come to Hollywood to drink or get high, and I don't want to be considered a cool actor - I want to be a great actor.
Fatherhood didnt change me in the beginning very much.
Well you know for me, the action is the juice.
You must have to want it so badly, if there is any way you can live without it, get out of it. Being an unsuccessful actor is like having a skin disease. Make sure your passion is not misplaced.
I weighed 190 when I got to boot camp, I came out at 178. I ate only the beans and tomato sauce.
