Actor

I was watching Burt Reynolds movies when I was a kid, going, 'That's what I want to do.'

I'm not an extremely prolific writer. I don't write songs all the time.

The end of times has always been a fascination. But post 9/11, pretty much everybody will admit to having it on their minds more frequently than when they were a kid.

I read bits and pieces of 'Twilight' as we were making it.

I'm a guy who likes to make it up as he goes along.

We are so reliant on power and technology for everything.

I don't make the distinction between whether or not I'm going to do a TV show or movies. It's all based on material. It's about whatever comes along that I think I can add the most to, bring something to the character, and have some fun with.

I like to play a lot of poker in my off time.

When your baby smiles at you with their whole body, it's enough to make me fall down.

I'd rather be busy than not.

Actually shooting a 3-D movie is not different at all than making a 2-D one. You never really notice that you're making a 3-D movie. The terminology used around the set is a little bit different, but other than that, you'd never know.

I've never had a series that's gone past 12 episodes.

Bill Condon has made some excellent movies.

You can't stop technology or science, and it is snowballing quicker than ever. Something's got to come to a head. How? Who knows? But it will.

My daughter was born just after the making of 'Twilight.'

It's nice to be able to play a guy who gets to say all the things that you don't get to say in real life.

Most evil characters, if they're not psychopathic, they become that way because they believe in what they're doing.

You never get fans hanging out on movie sets. It just never happens.

I started out as a musician. Although I always wanted to have a dual career, I fell into the TV and movie business more strongly and more quickly.

I've gotten an opportunity to work with a lot of the people I've looked up to over the years, and I feel pretty grateful for it.
