The funny thing is you oddly don’t really say goodbye to all the characters you’ve played. There’s like a chest of drawers in your head that you can always access. They’re always around. I’m not sure if that’s healthy. But they’re all there Picture Quote #1

I like to play complex characters and the duality, and trying to reach for the light, it’s more interesting really. I’ve gotten to play so many types of guys and I just try to find the humanity in each one of them the best I can Picture Quote #1

I’m not a huge social media kind of guy, so I don’t really know, I don’t really ever get... at least in real life, I really don’t get recognized. I think people seem to find it very difficult to connect me to characters I’ve played Picture Quote #1
