Actor

When I was 8 years old, I saw 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' in Charlotte, North Carolina. I walked out of there and was so inspired. I loved the movie, and I knew I wanted to be that guy.

There's this lingering philosophy that movie stars shouldn't do TV.

What I like to do is get the family in the pick-up truck... and then we just go for a drive. That's it!

It is no surprise that animation is Hollywood's most successful and innovative genre.

Nutrition is so important. It can't be stressed enough.

For different roles, my condition and training and diet does alter. Depending on the role, it will really dictate the type of training I do.

I don't race cars.

My genetic make-up is one of physicality. I'm a visceral guy.

When I was ten, I won the horseshoe-throwing contest at summer camp. I was also the Wiffle ball champion in my town.

One of the skills I had to learn and become proficient in is kissing a man. I had never kissed a man. Will Smith did it in his movies, so did Jake Gyllenhaal, and I figured it was my time. So it was me and Steve Carell - fantastic.

I knew credibility would come only in time and through earnest performances.

If I love you, I show you I love you every day. Little things, big things.

For me it came from the material. It was so well written and brought the opportunity to work with great actors. And of course the opportunity to 'mince about' was an added element that I wanted to take advantage of!

I played with two lines of action figures when I was a kid: G.I. Joe and Star Wars.

Around every corner, always protect the engine that powers you.

For 'Hercules,' I went for the demigod look: big and mean. When you're playing a character like the son of Zeus, you only get one shot.

I didn't have to win, and winning wasn't important to me. Being world champion wasn't important to me. What was important to me was entertaining the audience, and whether that meant winning, losing, singing, or whatever it was on the live show we were doing every week, which was awesome, I was game for it.

I've been known to have a good step or two. I'm half Samoan, you know, and part of our culture is singing and dancing daily.

I learned a long time ago how to be coachable.

I can hold my own when it comes to burping. I've got a good feeling that I could win a championship.
