I Think When You Play A Role,

I Look At A Pilot And Go, "i See The Landscape. I See The Characters. I See The Direction And The Potential Of The Story." And I Also Go, "that Didn't Work. I Could Change That. Maybe That Works. I Don't Know. We'll See." For Me, I Look At It, As An Actor, As What Can I Improve Upon? So, To Have It Out There And Judged Solely On Its Own Merit Is Really A Unique Experience For Me.

My Parents Raised Me Right, So I Always Open Doors For People And Try To Have Good Manners.

I Like Not To Know, Unless It's Something That I Need To Know, Specifically, For How I Color A Performance.

I At Least Felt The Obligation To Speak Clearly [in 'the Last Tycoon']. This Is Pre-brando And Pre-james Dean. Nobody Mumbled Back Then.

What We Really Have To Do Is Stop The Adjective Before The Job Title — Whether It's 'black Actor,' A 'gay Actor' Or 'anything Actor,' Everybody Thinks That Equality Comes From Identifying People, And That's Not Where Equality Comes From. Equality Comes From Treating Everybody The Same Regardless Of Who They Are. I Hope The Media And The Press Catches On To That Because It's Time To Move Out Of 1992.
