I need to react to a script, to feel strongly about it in some way. And I need it to be a complex character for sure. And also, I think a lot about what kind of audience there is for the film, what they're looking for and ways to connect with them in the playing of a character.

I can't totally talk about why we divide, but... it's interesting because we're doing this scene today that's sort of the pinnacle of that. Two gangs fighting against each other, ultimately knowing that... ya know, it's like friends fighting friends. To me it's fun, personally.

I like to play unpredictable characters, and I like to be unpredictable in what movie I'll do. I want to skip to work. I don't want to repeat anything. What the future holds, I don't know, but that's what I like. I'll take any risk there is.

If you dissect my career as an actor, and you can pull out more than enough of those type of movies, from The Hurt Locker and The Town and so on and so forth, and that's kind of where our wheelhouse is. We love it.

I think it's great to be a part of a franchise that is successful. Any franchise is successful because it's a continuation and people have seen it.

Yeah it feels a bit more tangible, I suppose, even though you're in a green box for part of the time.

I want my personal life to be personal... And I don't care if you're talking about things that are true, you're still talking about my personal life.

I think, strangely, a strip club can tell you a lot about the city you're in. If you call a strip club Tuna's, I've gotta go in there. Usually you're not seeing the top talent around, but it's not about that. It's about the experience.
