I never think there’s any competition between films. I root for everybody’s films. I especially have a fond place in my heart for graphic novels and comics.
When you think about where are you going to find that big love of your life, you seldom think it’s someone you already know. You think it’s someone you’re yet to meet.
Everybody understands that acting is a really difficult job. It’s hard work. You’ve got to get dressed up, you’ve got to hang around with beautiful women. It’s difficult. It’s a problem.
I just have more fun when I get to try new things – and the action film genre has kind of painted itself into a corner, copied itself so many times and it has basically run out of bad buys.
All the films are hits before you turn the camera on. It’s only in the execution that they fail. I’ve been less than happy with the way a couple of films were edited, but it’s a director’s prerogative and you gotta go with it.
If I had a choice, I would do comedy all the time. It’s just the most challenging thing. To make someone laugh is the most challenging thing, and the most rewarding thing, in entertainment.
