More quotes by Jonah Hill
Be open to other people's ideas. Don't get arrogant about your ideas. Shoot a lot of options so you're not stuck with just one version of something.
Jonah Hill
It's just hard when you're someone who's like hurting a lot of people or deceiving people who trust you, not to bring some of that home with you or inside of you.
Jonah Hill
I'm a big hip hop fan.
Jonah Hill

21 Jump Street is great. I just made that, and produced it and was a writer on it. It's starring myself and Channing Tatum, and maybe some surprise guests.

When I look at interviews from when I was that age, I come off different than how I am because I've matured - and I've matured, become a man in front of the public eye.
Jonah Hill
I have other tastes besides comedy. I love comedy. I adore it, but I love dramatic movies just as much.
Jonah Hill
'Allen Gregory' came about because we wanted an animated show and we were just tossing around some ideas about me playing a 7-year-old. We thought that would be cool, because we couldn't do that in real life.
Jonah Hill
It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do.
Jonah Hill
I always say I want to eventually shift my career to directing and writing.
Jonah Hill
I grew up with baseball I played in Little League and went to games with my dad. But I, as I grew up, became more of a basketball fanatic than a baseball one.
Jonah Hill
When you create something you're free to explore it however you want to do it.
Jonah Hill
I assume everything I do in life is gonna be a failure, and then if it turns up roses, then I'm psyched.
Jonah Hill
The great thing about 'Allen Gregory' is that we try to make it really questionable that the things he says have happened, have really happened. We like that ambiguity.
Jonah Hill
I don't like to say mean things about people's hard work.
Jonah Hill
My heroes are Bill Murray and Dustin Hoffman. Those are the two actors that both do comedies and dramas, seamlessly. Also John C. Reilly and Philip Seymour Hoffman. They're all just great actors, neither comedic nor dramatic. They're just great actors.
Jonah Hill
I want to meet the man who saw a turtle and said, People will LOVE the ninja version of that.
Jonah Hill
As an actor, you tell part of a story. As a writer, you get more of telling that story. But as a director, they're seeing the world through your eyes.
