More quotes by Joel Edgerton
I'm not going to allow myself to second-guess projects. I'm just going to do the ones that I fully love and believe in - that's a real privilege.
Joel Edgerton
I'm not scared of doing movies that are just about entertainment. I'm not scared of doing movies that are really challenging and cover difficult terrain. I just want good experiences and I want to challenge myself and I want to just keep learning, as an actor.
Joel Edgerton
The first video I ever watched was on a Beta system because everyone thought Beta was the way but then it ended up being video so we backed the wrong horse.
Joel Edgerton
There's something nice about making a night of the theater rather than sitting in front of your TV.
Joel Edgerton
It's tricky. I've never been standing at the top of the tree with tons of money thrown at me. I've never really had a profile. So in a way I have this 'nothing to lose' attitude.
Joel Edgerton
There's the pressure of being a No. 1 on the call sheet, being a lead actor. There's almost this feeling like being captain of the team. You want to put a bit of energy into actually setting a good example.
Joel Edgerton
The tricky thing becomes: Do you know yourself well enough to then portray that on screen? And for me, I find that really hard. I'd rather hide behind accents and funny walks.
Joel Edgerton
I have always stuck to my guns about what I want from the work and what interests me. I've never been seduced down the evil path. The path of taking the money.
Joel Edgerton
I always kept myself fairly fit.
Joel Edgerton
The recipe for any character is always very interesting, as far as what doses of certain qualities you want.
Joel Edgerton
It feels good to be fit and strong.
Joel Edgerton
My brother and I are best friends.
Joel Edgerton
I have a lot of ideas that I feel are half-formed, or half-way okay.
Joel Edgerton
The biggest difference for me is momentum. On a smaller film you get to shoot sometimes four or five scenes a day and you've got to do the tight schedule. I think I really feel the luxuries of a big budget film.
Joel Edgerton
Basically you want as many people as possible to see your movie.
Joel Edgerton
Whereas 'Avatar' and other movies get shocks out of their three-dimensionality, 'Gatsby' is going to be about inviting the audience into this larger-than-life drama, letting them almost be inside the room rather than looking at it through the window. I think it will really work.
Joel Edgerton
Whenever you deal with science fiction you are setting up a world of rules. I think you work hard to establish the rules. And you also have to work even harder to maintain those rules, and within that find excitement and unpredictability and all that stuff.
Joel Edgerton
I can't sing or dance.
Joel Edgerton
I'm really good at judging and observing other people, but not myself.
Joel Edgerton
North America makes a ton of movies and there's a ton of movies that are exceptional.
