It was nice that there [ in the Bourne Ultimatum ] was a reference to the relationship . It’s very subtle – it’s actually without dialogue. I do think it’s powerful even without words.

I used to struggle a lot with dwelling on how the day at work was, and I would dwell on my performance. Now, I’m like, “Well, that’s over and done with, and I can’t control the outcome, so move on.” I just remember that it’s entertainment I am making.

I think it’s really special to be a part of something that people are still watching or thinking about or interested in, or remember fondly many years later. I don’t think it’s annoying at all.

I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don’t do anything that outlandish anyway.

I think women get caught up too much in having a plan – ‘I’m going to get married at this age I’m going to have a kid at this age’ – and then they just try to find a guy who will fit into that picture. I don’t want my life to be based on that.
