I Don't Think It's Necessarily 100-percent True.

I Noticed While Working On Green Lantern That The Actor - Albeit Forefront In The Film, Obviously, And The Key Focus For The Audience - Is Kind Of The Smallest Cog In The Machine When You're Shooting.

I Know There Are Actors We All Want To Beat Up A Little. I Think It's Important To Do Whatever It Takes, And Whatever It Takes Sometimes Involves Some Physical Or Mental Discipline. There's A Lot At Stake.

I Can't Say I've Ever Finished A Film And Been Particularly Thrilled With Myself Or Patted Myself On The Back. And Maybe That's What Keeps Me Going, And That's A Good Thing. It Speaks Volumes About How I Perceive Myself.

If You Want A Film And They Don't Want You, Sometimes You Have To Go Fight For It. Sometimes That Ends Up Just Being A Meeting Really, Just Sitting Down With Them And Just Saying Here Is My Vision For It And Here Is Why I Really Love It. But For The Most Part, I Think Filmmakers Gravitate Towards People That Are Excited - As Excited As They Are About The Film And As Passionate About It. So Sometimes Going After It Isn't So Much A Function Of Auditioning As It Is Just Sitting Down With The Filmmaker.

I Just Want To Finish What I'm Doing And Go Home. I Want To Have A Weekend. I Want To Have Breakfast, A Stack Of Pancakes. I Don't Want To Not Enjoy Where I Am At This Very Moment. So, Every Time I Plan Something The Exact Opposite Happens.
