My Dad Never Blew Anything Up, But

I Think The Reason I Was Able To Get The Jobs I Did Is Because I Worked For Some Very Strong, Self-possessed Filmmakers Who Wouldn't Listen To The Executive-suited Wisdom, And They Believed In Me From Director To Actor. Not From Salesman To Commodity.

I Don't Think Action For Action's Sake Is So Fun, But When It Helps Tell The Story, I Love Doing A Good Fight Scene.

There Seems To Be A Notion In Hollywood That If You Want To Make Money, You Have To Sacrifice Doing Good Work With Integrity. And I Think That's Bullshit. I Think That's An Excuse, And It's What People Say Who Are Scared That They Can't Do Good Work.

A Lot Of The Motivation For Doing The 'make 'em Laugh' On Snl Was Because I Had Just Finished Shooting 'inception,' Where There Were Zero-gravity Scenes And I Got Into Really Good Shape And Was Training And Did All These Stunts. Coming Off Of That, That Instilled Me With The Confidence To Do 'make 'em Laugh.'

Most Scripts Are Bad. I Read A Lot Of Them.
