When someone who is known as a comedic actor goes to drama, it often doesn't work out, because they really just chose wrong, I think - or maybe they're just not good actors, I don't know.

More quotes by Jonah Hill
I've never been into just really silly stuff.
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. 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.
Jonah Hill
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
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
It's not unexpected for me to be in a comedy film anymore I'm no longer the underdog in that world.
Jonah Hill
It wasn't like, 'I'ma lose weight and start doing dramas.' I wanted to be healthier, and that was the impetus for wanting to lose weight - it's just about being healthy and feeling good.
Jonah Hill
I am a filmmaker fanatic. I have never been star-struck by an actor once in my entire life.
Jonah Hill
Maybe if you play somebody in a certain world people sometimes misinterpret that it's a support of that world or that occupation or something.
Jonah Hill
Besides the fact that I make movies, there's nothing interesting about my life at all, unfortunately.
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 really care about this stuff, I care about movies, and you just have to be strong and don't be stupid freedom of choice is a big responsibility, and I'm lucky enough not to have to just take any movie to pay the rent, so there's no need to be greedy.
Jonah Hill
Jump Street merging with MiB I think that's clean and rad and powerful.
Jonah Hill
I want to meet the man who saw a turtle and said, People will LOVE the ninja version of that.
Jonah Hill
I think our culture has gotten so skewed. People assume that because you're an actor you want to write a book to exploit your celebrity, but my celebrity is only a byproduct of me making movies. I have no intention of being a celebrity.
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
I like playing characters that, you know, a couple could go see the movie and one person could love him and one person could hate him.
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
Comedies are doing well because I think people want to laugh and not think about everything for a little bit.
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.
Jonah Hill
I love my parents. But I'm almost 28 and it's not fun to be asked, 'What are you doing today? What do you want for dinner? When are you going to be home?' It just makes you feel like a kid. It's this juxtaposition of feeling annoyed and really lucky to have people who love you so much.
