Often times, if a character is pretty straightforward, he or she is not as interesting to portray.

I like films, I like movies, I like playing different characters and working with different actors, and filming in different places. I like movies, because it's kind of a combination of every art, it's like it's picture, it's story, it's music, it's kind of like a clash and a collide of every art. It's really neat.

I would rather portray the hero, if it's a really great film. All my favorite fictional film characters are heroes, such as in The Last of the Mohicans and Robin Hood.

I walked away from this movie thinking how important it is to have a genuine selfless love for your children. You can really mess kids up if you don't have the right kind of love for them.

Silence Of The Lambs is definitely very frightening.

There's nothing better than actually getting to watch the person and see his or her mannerisms.

Being joyful is a choice.

That's what rock music is, I think - constantly searching for authenticity, and being as honest as possible.

I'd rather live forever in Heaven than a place where there's terrorism and hate.
