Whatever Character You Play, Remember They Are

I'm Not A Big Guy Anyway. I'm Only, What, 150 Pounds? I Was 190 For 'batman,' 179 For 'warrior.' Films Make You Look Big.

I Wanted My Dad To Be Proud Of Me, And I Fell Into Acting Because There Wasn't Anything Else I Could Do, And In It I Found A Discipline That I Wanted To Keep Coming Back To, That I Love And I Learn About Every Day.

I'd Learned How To Lie And Manipulate From An Early Age So A Combination Of That, Desperation, Having To Have My Own Fridge And My Umbilical Cord Back... I Had To Go Out Into The World. Then Some Angel Somewhere Said: "have You Considered Going To Drama School?" And This Sounded Like The Solution To All Of My Problems.

I Think I Had Only Been Working Nine Months When I Got Star Trek, And It Was Huge. It Was Very Overwhelming. So That Opened My Eyes A Bit At An Early Age, Kind Of How Not Be Frightened When Walking Into A Responsibility Of Something Like Villain In Batman, Or A Hobbit, Or Whatever It Is.

I Don't Know Anything About God Except That It's Not Me. So, Somewhere Between That Acceptance And Doing My Homework And Being Competitive And Having Ambition And Loving My Job And Observing And Reflecting My Society, That's Where I Find The Purpose. Because Man Needs Purpose.
