I mostly like documentaries, so I always think things that happened in real life are so astounding that why would you make a movie about something fake.

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.

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.

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 mean, I find things that happened in real life to be the funniest - things that you observe instead of crazy abstract things, you know.

I have other tastes besides comedy. I love comedy. I adore it, but I love dramatic movies just as much.

Besides the fact that I make movies, there's nothing interesting about my life at all, unfortunately.
