I Play Saxophone, I Play Tenor Sax.

I Love Acting And Certainly Won't Give It Up, But It's Part Of A Bigger Canvas For Me Now.

I Love The Whole Kind Of Notion Of Transformation For Me Is (what) Excites Me About Not Only Acting, But Storytelling. I Love, I Love That Notion Of A Slightly Larger-than-life Artistic Truth, You Know, Magnifying Real Emotional Truth (or) Finding Something About Human Condition (which), You Wouldn't Necessarily Think You Can Learn From Characters Such As Kong Or Gollum, But Actually They Are, You Know, These Huge Amplifications Of A Human Psyche And I Suppose Those Kind Of Roles Have Always Attracted Me Definitely.

When I Played Gollum In 'lord Of The Rings,' If I Was Climbing Up The Side Of A Mountain, Which I Physically Did, You Know, I Was On Every Single Occasion Swimming Through Streams, All Of That, That Wasn't Captured. That Was Filmed On 35 Millimeter, And For Certain Of Those Shots, It Was Rotoscoped And Painted Over.

I'm Definitely Moving More Towards Directing Now.

We're Live In A World That Has, In Many Ways, Become Desensitized And Unable To Empathize With Other Cultures And Species. The Dangerous Part Is That We Objectify Others And Have Somehow Removed Ourselves, Mentally, From The Very Planet We Inhabit.
