growing-up eras jordan
It was a great time to grow up in Chicago. It was the mid-80s, and we had the 85 Bears and the Michael Jordan era.
thinking people psychology
I was a psychology major. I think that definitely helps in general life; I enjoy trying to figure out why people are the way they are.
fans cubs
Once a Cubs fan, always a Cubs fan.
philosophy people
Everybody has their own approach. I don't adhere to any one philosophy. I learn a lot from life and people - watching and other people watching.
crazy i-am-pretty
I am pretty diligent with my fitness routine. I am not like a crazy workout-holic, but I stay active.
kids games play
I just really enjoy the ritual of going to work and playing, which is essentially what we do. We play pretend. Acting is a kids' game.
sports acting watches
Where I grew up, acting wasn't really accessible. I was just playing sports. But, I did watch a lot of TV. I watched a lot of Clint Eastwood movies on TV and had this fantasy of being like him when I grew up.
beach character eye
I definitely have an eye on doing more work in features and playing different characters, but I am also a big fan of going on vacation and playing golf and going to the beach. With anything, it's about finding the balance.
ideas directors different
I love when a director shows up with a lot of energy, and different ideas about how to change things and do it a different way. Once you get into series, sometimes you don't have that, so I certainly don't take that for granted when I get it.
strong men play
I really loved the story. I originally read for Walt Longmire. He is obviously a very dynamic, strong, manly man that almost any dude would want to play. Once I got in the room and met with everybody, the feedback came back that they loved me, but that I didn't have the age. And then, they brought up the idea of Branch, who wasn't that interesting on the page in the pilot, but once they explained the vision, I really bought into it.
character interesting vision
When I sat down with the creators of the show [Longmire], back when we were first starting to do the pilot, Branch was not that interesting on the page. What really sold me on the show and the character was their vision for him. It took the whole first season to flesh him out.
clouds light sky
First and foremost, my hats off to our directors and camera department. That is something I will miss after Longmire. I can't imagine working on another show that looks like this. We'll get the whole crew out on location and have a hundred people standing around, waiting for about 40 minutes, so that sun is just a little bit further in the sky and the light is hitting the cloud, in the perfect way.
inspire peers motivated
I've never been motivated by money. My peers and colleagues inspire me.
color glue world
Transportation is the center of the world! It is the glue of our daily lives. When it goes well, we don't see it. When it goes wrong, it negatively colors our day, makes us feel angry and impotent, curtails our possibilities.
