I wouldn't tell anyone to study werewolves - I studied wolves, how they moved, their tendencies and sensibilities.

I think when portraying someone that does exist in real life, there's an amount of respect and you want to do them justice. I don't really care what anybody says out there about what I did in the film I care what these guys thought about what I did. If I'm making them happy, then I know I'm on the right track.

I play characters who are comfortable naked, but that's something you work up to. I did a play off-Broadway in New York when I was in college. It was full-frontal nudity. It's nerve-racking.
