It's that athlete's obsessiveness - the need to prove yourself and work harder than anybody else. I think it's what helped me do well in the theater. ↗

I love making people laugh. It's an addiction and it's probably dysfunctional, but I am addicted to it and there's no greater pleasure for me than sitting in a theater and feeling a lot of people losing control of themselves. ↗

For some reason, some of my best solutions and ideas are triggered in those dark theaters, usually totally unrelated to what's going on onscreen. I also enjoy hiking in the foothills and mountains close to Sacramento. I always have to bring a pen and paper to jot down sudden thoughts and ideas. So inspiration arises from countless sources. ↗

My goal as an actor was to work - to be a working actor, whether it was in theater, and, well, I didn't even consider film and television when I was in New York, but what came along, came along. ↗

We film in front of a live audience, and I was a theater actor before I got into television, so I like that. ↗

I've realized that what you think of when you make a 'big movie,' if it's actually a green screen movie, it's like doing independent New York theater because you don't have any backgrounds or props. So it's kind of like making the lowest budgeted film you could possibly imagine, plus $100 million. ↗

My goal was not to be famous or rich but to be good at what I did. And that required going to New York and studying and working in the theater. ↗

Toward the end of school I started watching movies. Got a job in a movie theater in Brookline, Massachusetts. ↗

Miramax can buy a small independent movie that isn't very good, but because it has great relationships with different theaters, it can get into a big theater. ↗
