More quotes by Jonah Hill
I think morality is so individual and personal, and people draw their own lines of what that means for them.
Jonah Hill
When you do your comedy and your drama, your acting style doesn't change. If it's a comedy, the situations and the characters might be a little funnier, but you're just trying to be honest.
Jonah Hill
The fact that the Kardashians could be more popular than a show like “Mad Men” is disgusting. It’s a super disgusting part of our culture, but I still find it funny to make a joke about it.
Jonah Hill
I run and do a lot of push-ups and eat healthy.

It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do. It's not unexpected for me to be in a comedy film anymore I'm no longer the underdog in that world. Not that I'm great or good at it or anything, it's just that I've done a bunch of them, so you're not shocked.

I don't watch like Sci-fi or things like that, I'm always more like real life is so endlessly fascinating to me.
Jonah Hill
There are a lot of things going into making a movie. So many things can go wrong. So many people that need to show up and bring their A game. If one thing is out of place, the whole movie can fall apart.
Jonah Hill
Luckily with animation, they give you a lot more leeway than a live-action show.
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.
Jonah Hill
I play a lot of games on my iPhone. There is a game called Rat on a Scooter that I will promote as much as possible because it has brought me so much joy.
Jonah Hill
I mean, I find things that happened in real life to be the funniest - things that you observe instead of crazy abstract things, you know.
Jonah Hill
I've learned through experience of playing different characters, some of whom were jerks, that when you play a character who is pretentious or obnoxious, in any way, it's important to knock them down a peg.
Jonah Hill
I am a filmmaker fanatic. I have never been star-struck by an actor once in my entire life.
Jonah Hill
I believe in collaboration. I think that is the most entertaining and effective way to write for me, personally.
Jonah Hill
