A lot of people have been bent one way or the other on that. I'm not going to weigh in on that I'm happy to still be at large, I'll just put it that way.

I had an opportunity to be in Frank's [Sinatra] circle, but I couldn't take advantage of it because I couldn't get over how awed I was by him. It was so uncomfortable for me because he meant so much to me, but I just couldn't be myself, so I fled rather than having those great nights hanging out.

I do voicework all the time.

I lost 90 pounds and my blood pressure went down to a normal level and the salt in my urine disappeared. And that was when I had to make the transition from fat character actor to thin character actor.
Ron Perlman
Image
I've always wanted to have my own studio because this is a way for me to finally take all things that I've always dreamt about and actually put them into action.

Distortions control my self-image, like they do for a lot of us. It's irrational.
Ron Perlman

The only way to grab the attention of the audience is originality. We feed ourselves with franchises that's the opposite of what makes our culture multidimensional and interesting.

I'll walk through fire to do what I do because the movie business, when it's right, is the coolest art form ever invented.

Image
That's always been Guillermo's preference, is to have as much there practically as is humanly possible, and that digital graphic images are more a punctuation mark than they are a replacement.
Ron Perlman
Image
None of us are any better than anyone else and none of us are any worse than anyone else, and we're all equal and whatever we can do to celebrate our commonality rather than our differences, which is what religion does, to me... religion just compartmentalizes people and makes everybody into a box.
Ron Perlman
Image
I say yes to almost anything that comes my way.
Ron Perlman
Image
I was working more on a primal, instinctive level. And it just seemed to suit me it seemed to suit my concentration span, it seemed to suit my personal style of performance, and I have fallen in love with film acting.
Ron Perlman
Image
I like to believe that everyone is born with the same skill set, and that it is the influences that one comes upon.
Ron Perlman
Image
I've never worked with a tail, that I can remember. But there's so much I can't remember.
Ron Perlman
Image
I never direct myself, because I don't like working with me. I would punch me in the mouth if I had to take my direction.
Ron Perlman
Image
I don't ever want to be comfortable with anything I'm doing.
Ron Perlman
Image
I'm just trying to make up for lost times, and I have total awareness that when the work is coming it doesn't mean it's going to continue to come, so I'm taking advantage of this phenomenal period that I'm in now, to its fullest.

I'm not religious, but I am spiritual. I have my own relationship with a being that I consider to be everywhere. All and everything. I don't need a church or a synagogue or a mosque. I don't need to kneel down, I don't need to stand up, I don't need to be hanging from a thread.

I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.

Cinema to me is like a religion. If I was going to have a religion it would be cinema.
