Quote

It's the reason we go to films and watch television: to escape the mundane nature of life and see another world and see ourselves in that other world. I think that's what sci-fi does so well.

I see a lot of things I'm so excited and hopeful about film and TV in Canada. There's just a huge movement, I think, in seeking an identity as Canadians, and really forging it and really embracing all the parts of us as Canadians that come from such varied experiences and such varied cultures. And I think there are strong voices that come out.

Going back is a nice way to give definition to each of the characters because they are so vastly different. I would never want them to get blended together.

For me, comedians are like the epitome for everything great, and they terrify me. I just want to be them. I want to be like them.

My brothers are so much a part of who I am, and such a large part of my heart and my drive. I've never had a kid, but I understand that whole, I would kill for my family kind of thing. I understood it, it resonated with me. It's a very primal, animal thing that you feel for your family.

I'm an actor and I like having attention. There's a reason I like being on stage and in front of the camera, and it's that interaction.
