“I’m more into MMA than any other sport. I watch a lot of the UFC fights. I have since it first came onto the scene.”

People take chances every now and then, and you don’t want to disappoint them.

Sometimes there are people who don’t know how to make action movies – and that situation isn’t a good one.

I love Tony Jaa. He’s one of the best and most capable martial arts stuntmen in the world.

Do 40 hard minutes, not an hour and a half of nonsense.

I’m not fixed in any genre. I love all kinds of films. The essential thing is; you have to have good material. If you have the filmmaker, and the material, and the script is good, you can start from there.

Every sequel needs to be bigger and better.

I think being a competitive diver for years helps you focus and dedicate yourself to what’s needed.

There is something about yourself that you don’t know.

The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.

A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.

And it was a great experience, you know, to travel the world and compete at a certain level. It teaches you discipline, focus, and certainly keeps you out of trouble.

A lot of actors are frustrated because they want to do things that are different and test themselves. Character actors are always looking for something the opposite of what they did.

I’ve been unfortunate enough to be working, and recovering from a few injuries now and again.

Jet was very busy. I’ve been inspired by a lot of his movies.

I know, a lot of the films I’ve done, it’s obvious I’m going to beat up six guys and just walk out the door. There’s not a lot of motivating factors – it’s just action for the sake of action.

I’m enthusiastic and ambitious, and I work hard.
