Looking back at my career, if there's one word that most people use to describe me, it's intense.

Half my family was from the Imperial Japanese Navy, and the other half was U.S. Army, and I was raised on Army posts during my childhood, so I pretty much began my life with a split-brain sort of thing.

In every aspect of society, including business and anywhere that creativity can be used, we can be - or we used to be, anyway - the most innovative country, because we weren't restricted by artificial limitations.

My major intention for coming to Hollywood - besides the fact that I was just enamored with acting from a very young age - was that I was tired of seeing wimpy Asian actors.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
American comedies about Asians have never been funny to me. That always kind of pissed me off.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
I was clear: I don't want to play businessmen with bifocal glasses and cameras, so if you're going to give me an Asian bad guy to play, then I'm going to give you the baddest Asian bad guy you've ever seen, and you're not going to forget that I was in the film.

There were times when I purposely didn't go to school because of Pearl Harbor Day, because certainly there was enough media about it every year to remind everybody. So when I heard they were going to make the movie, I thought, Oh, no, please not another Pearl Harbor mention!

That's the worst thing for an actor: when you say to someone, Yeah, I was in that movie, and they say, You were?
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
I'm not a method actor, I don't write my character's history or all those kinds of things. I'm more about the 90 percent of the brain that is subconscious. I like to just pick certain pieces, let it soak in, and then let it kind of emerge out.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
I have to humbly say people really like the bad guys.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
Bruce Lee was the first guy to bring film recognition of Asian men not being wimps, so it made me want to be as powerful as he was.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa
