I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.

I used to lift very heavy weights in my mid-twenties - I used to bench press over 300lb. The most I ever lifted was 330lb I couldn't do that today, no way.

I look my best when I take my helmet off after a long motorcycle ride. I have a glow and a bit of helmet hair.

Image
I have a theory that I really want my kids to know - the only coloration that they make between dad being in films and reality is just a lot of people doing a lot of hard work.
Eric Bana
Image
The more I love the character, the harder it is to get it wrong. I have to get to a point that I can speak for them.

Image
Each time you go to the same track you know whether you're improving or whether you're not... it's not open to interpretation. It's measurable - unlike acting.

The reason my kids come to the set is so I can actually see them.

I've had frustrated storytelling juices that have been lying dormant for a long time, and I guess the documentary was a way of me telling a story that I felt most qualified to tell. And I loved it, and I'd love to do something else someday, probably more narrative-based. But I'm in no rush.

I love working with people who have had television experience because I think there's a real efficiency and methodology that comes from that background.

I think if you had to map that out at the beginning and you said, Right, sit down, this is what you're going to be doing, you'd probably freak out. But I'm someone who really enjoys not being himself. So if you consider that, then it all sort of makes sense.

Image
I think you need to be able to see a lot of negative in things in order to extract material, so there's probably something to that. A lot of the people I used to work with were very, very, very unfunny offstage, so that's a pretty common thing.
Eric Bana
Image
I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.
Eric Bana
Image
My background was producing and writing and performing in television when I started out, and I really missed that, that whole creative process that comes from sort of 'me' storytelling.
Eric Bana
Image
There wasn't a moment where I got into cars. It wasn't a conscience decision or something that came later, it was there since I was born. I just love it.
Eric Bana
Image
I love being at home, being with friends and family. I'm of European stock, brought up in Australia. I'm a passionate guy. I just love life.

Image
I would never say never to returning to comedy.

Image
It's always been my hope, as an actor, to reveal only what is relevant about myself to the work.

Image
Without a doubt, rowing is the hardest thing you can attempt to learn in a short period of time.
Eric Bana
Image
I'd say I'm the opposite of someone that has the urge to stand in front of strangers and make them laugh, but the idea of getting up and telling a story and people finding it amusing always appealed to me.
Eric Bana
Image
I think the beauty of working with young people is they remind you of the spirit of acting and it's just a big play.

The longer you have something, the stronger the bond. That's true with people as well as things.
