I tend to get comfortable with the dialogue and find out who the person is in the script and try to hit that. People are sort of independent of their occupations and their pastimes. You don’t play a politician or a fireman or a cowboy – you just play a person.

On land, you can walk away from people, from unpleasant situations. But when you’re on a ship for 14 months with 49 other people, if you don’t resolve your issues it literally could mean – and this would be an extreme circumstance – the sinking of the ship.

I don’t have any complex plans for playing a character. I think all I try to do is not make too many bad guy faces and not ever try to seem too good. I just try to put it in the middle somewhere.

I don’t have time to overthink things, and I don’t have time to get bogged down in stuff. I’m not sitting there thinking for a week and a half, before I’m supposed to go in front of a network president to do something. That just gives you time to be nervous.
