I Remember Exiting The Birth Canal And Suddenly I Was In A Film. But You Are Never Really In Charge Of That. The Movie Came Out About Five Or Six Months Ago In America. It Was Miramax In The States And Disney Here [fakes Falling Asleep]. What Happened. I Love Working For Disney, Not Walt Specifically Because He Couldn't Be More Dead, But The Company Is Fantastic.

I Played Rugby For Years, And I Had A Rugby Jacket That I Lost When I Was 14. Somehow, My Brother Found It In Storage 15 Years Later, And He Gave It Back To Me For My 30th Birthday. That Was Amazing And Probably One Of The Best Gifts I've Ever Received.

There Are So Few Surprises Left In Life. We've Gotten So Addicted To Knowing. It's The Google Generation. We Want The Answer To Everything Right Now!

Honestly, I Think It's Dumb Luck That I'm Able To Kind Of Get Away Doing Different Types Of Films In Different Genres. There's Always A Tendency To Kind Of Stick With What Works, Or Stick With One Particular Kind Of Brand Or Movie. But So Far I've Been Getting Away With It, So I'm Going To Continue To Do That For As Long As I Can.

Every Time I've Gotten Myself Into Trouble, It's Because I'm Choosing A Project Based On A Long-term Career Goal As Opposed To Something That Speaks To Me At The Moment.

I Think Theres Escapist Moviemaking, And We Want To Be Captivated And Taken Away. If Its Done Right, You Can Craft An Incredible Film. There Have Been Superhero Films That I Think Are Brilliant Pieces Of Art.

You Have To Really Make Sure That Every Moment Means Something, And That Every Moment, There's A Purpose For It. And Then You Have To Blend It All Together Without It Looking Like You're Really Focusing On It. That, To Me, Was The Magic Trick That Was Most Difficult For The Film [buried].

The R.i.p.d. Picture Is Like A Graphic Novel, I Guess. I Don't Know If It's Like A Typical Kind Of Comic Book. But There Is Great Source Material For Those Kinds Of Films.

Each Time I Take A Role, I'm Always Nervous About It At The Beginning And I'm Always Afraid What If That, What If This. Every Time I Take A Role And I'm Somewhat Terrified At The Beginning And I Get Into It And I Start Working, That's A Big Win For Me. So, Really It Is Stepping Forward In The Face Of Whatever Fears That I've Created For Myself And Going Forward Anyway And Those Are Always Big Moments For Me.

I've Had The Pretty Good Fortune Of Working With Some Decent Guys And Gals.

I'm Six Foot Two. If I Need Security Around Me, There's A Problem.

I Just Like To Look Beautiful Sometimes.

You'd Be Hard Pressed To Find More Drama In 'days Of Our Lives' Than You Do In An Average Job Each Day.

I Know People That Have Blacked Out That I Party With That Dont Do Anything Irresponsible. They Just Act Drunk, ... I Dont Think People Should Ever Drink By Themselves Because They Need To Have Friends Around That Can Keep Them In Line In Case They Do Blackout.

When I'm Not Training For A Movie, It's More Relaxed. I Do A Lot Of Running. Usually I'll Run Four To Six Miles About Three Times A Week. You Try To Eat Right, But You Don't Always.

When Your Dad's A Cop, Calling 911 Is Really Just Like Calling Dad At Work.

New Orleans Is One Of The Most Exciting, Incredible Communities In The World. There's Such A Rich Culture And History, And There Are Innumerable Things To Do.

I Think We Can All Use A Little More Patience. I Get A Little Impatient Sometimes And I Wish I Didn't. I Really Need To Be More Patient.

You Can Be Deported Back To Canada, Absolutely, For A Shockingly Minor Infraction. Little Bar Fight. Next Thing You Know You Are Back In Sascatchuan. Which I'm Not From, Thank God... But It Did Concern Me.

If You Want A Film And They Don't Want You, Sometimes You Have To Go Fight For It. Sometimes That Ends Up Just Being A Meeting Really, Just Sitting Down With Them And Just Saying Here Is My Vision For It And Here Is Why I Really Love It. But For The Most Part, I Think Filmmakers Gravitate Towards People That Are Excited - As Excited As They Are About The Film And As Passionate About It. So Sometimes Going After It Isn't So Much A Function Of Auditioning As It Is Just Sitting Down With The Filmmaker.

When I Do Comedy, My Brain Sort Of Locks Up In The Infinite Possibilities. That's Where I Get Sort Of Lost. I Think, "oh, There Are Six Other Jokes That We Could Say Here!" I Feel More At Home With Drama.

Making A Mix Cd - Albeit Slightly Old School - Is Generally A Pretty Cool Gift And Something I Like To Receive, Or Giving Someone A Book That Moved You. Writing An Inscription Inside Makes It Even Better.

Martin Campbell Is A Director Who Has That Ability To Marshal So Many Forces Together And Create A Film.

I Did As Much As I Could In Vancouver. You Can Only Play So Many Ex-'falcon Crest' Sons In So Many Movies Of The Week Before You Burn Out.

But If You Do, Then It's A High Class Problem To Have. And If You Do, You're The Architect Of That Problem. There's No One Else To Blame But Yourself. You've Kept Doing The Same Kinds Of Movies And That's What They Want To See.

There's A Very Real Possibility In This Industry Of Going Out And Leading Your Life And Then Going Home And Being A Voyeur Of Your Own Life. You Can Literally Go Watch Yourself - Where You Went Last Night, What You Did, What The Things That People Presuppose About You. It's Kind Of Crazy.

I Don't Necessarily Need 400 Pounds On My Back In The Squat Rack, And Then Take A Picture Of Myself And Send It Out To My Twitter Followers, 'part Of The 400 Pound Club Today.'

There's An Old Saying That You Don't Ever Finish A Movie, You Abandon It, And I Really Believe That. I Never Walk Away From A Take And Pat Myself On The Back.

We Might Be Too Proud To Admit It As Guys, But We Still Need To Learn How To Manage Responsibility, How To Face Our Challenges.

I'm A Bit Of An M&m Nut. I Like The Blue Ones. I Pick Them Out.

Even If My Father Wasn't Speaking To Me, He Would Never, Ever Miss A Baseball Game.

I Don't Like Seeing The Stuff That's Not Polished. It's Harder For Me To Step Away From It And Watch That.

Michael Keaton Had A Great, Great Career. I Do Remember When I Was A Young Guy Thinking About Him, About How He'd Had The Chance To Do It All, So Yeah. But, There's Nobody Where I've Said, "man, I Really Want That Guy's Career."

When I Meet Thousands Of Fans Of The Comic - When I Realize Every One Of Them Can Recite The Lantern Corps Oath ('in Brightest Day, In Blackest Night...') - I Know How Important This Is To People.

Hollywood Is Like A Stock Market - You're Always Up And Down And All Around. With Age, You Start To Invest Less In The Outcome Of That.

Bringing Any Movie Together Is A Minor Miracle.

It's Tough. It's Very Tricky To Throw A Morally Flexible Character Onto The Screen And Have An Audience Empathize. It's Always An Exercise In Restraint.

I Don't Think You Can Help But Personalize A Role. You Almost Play To None Of The Preconceived Notions Of It. It's More Or Less A Personal Experience And Journey.

I Firmly Believe That You Can't Manufacture Chemistry With Anyone, Let Alone A Kid.

I Don't Know If You've Ever Had Insomnia, But It's A Really Terrible Feeling When It's Days And Weeks On End. It Was Kind Of Awful.

I See Guys With, Like, Eyebrow Art, And I Wanna Tell Them, 'you Don't Have To Go Too Crazy On Your Brows. Take It Easy, Man!

My Very Worst Day On 'green Lantern' Was Nowhere Near As Difficult As My Finest Day On 'buried.'

The Woman Is Skin Covered Prozac I Like To Call Her. Half The Trick To A Film Like This Is Keeping A Sort Of Emotional Level Going And Keeping An Attitude That Induces Creativity On The Set. You Have To Be In A Good Mood For That. You Have To Be Happy To Make A Comedy I Think And Anne Sort Of Ensured That Every Time By Expressing Most Of Her Feelings Through The Exciting Medium Of Dance.

I've Always Just Liked Working. I Like Being A Working Actor.

When I First Moved To Los Angeles I Came Down There On A Wing And A Prayer In A Way. I Had About Six Weeks Worth Of Money To Make It There And That Was Just From Doing A Couple Of Episodes Of The X-files Just To Finance That Trip. I Got There And It Is Either You Got To Hit It Or You Got To Go And, Thankfully, I Found A Job.

I'm Sure I Have A Lot To Atone For, If There Is A Judgment Day. It's Gonna Be A Long List For Me. It Goes Right Up Until I Was About 18 And Then I Sort Of Straightened Out.

I Feared Disappointing My Father More Than Anything In The World.

If It Weren’t So Off-putting For My Co-workers. I’d Wear My Flannel, One-piece 'hannah Montana' Pajamas, Like, All The Time!

I've Always Find That Aussies And Vancouver-ites In General Just Have A Similar Kind Of Attitude.

There Are 7 Billion People On The Planet. Pretty Much Everyone Is Doing Sex. It's Not Like You Need To Order The "baby-starter Kit" On Amazon. Instincts Will Come To You At The Weirdest Places And Times.

I Believe In Energy Like Dark Energies. I Believe That When A Family Moves Into A House Where Six Murders Took Place, There's Going To Be Some Bad Juju In That House. But Then Again What The Hell Is Wrong With You To Be Moving In That House To Begin With?

I'll Do Whatever It Takes For A Movie. I Don't Really Care What That Is.

Whatever It Takes

I Think A Fragrance Is More Of A Signature Than Even What You Wear - Something You'll Remember More Down The Road Than A Shirt.

Everyone Thinks Their Baby Is A Genius. People Find It Delightfully Refreshing When I Tell Them, My Baby? Totally Average. Like, 100 Percent Average.

I Mean, Deadpool Has A Script, But It's A Very Complicated Process To Find The Right Filmmaker. We'll See.

I Have Bullshit Moments Every Once In A While - Like Every Actor Does.

Marathon Running, For Me, Was The Most Controlled Test Of Mettle That I Could Ever Think Of. It's You Against Darwin.

You Know, There's Nobody Where I've Said, 'man, I Really Want That Guy's Career.' I Mean, Each Of Us Has To Make Our Own Go Of It.

It's Just A Moment That Doesn't Feel 100-percent Truthful, A Kind Of A Square Peg/round Hole Situation. Which Is Why The Preproduction On A Movie Is So Important, Because You Can't Just Push Those Through.

I Think We Know Too Much About Actors As It Is And Their Personal Lives And It's This Information Age Where We're Stimulated Constantly By The Celebrity Buzz Effect Or Whatever It Is, These Web Sites And Blogs And Different Things.

I Always Say That Chemistry Is Something Impossible To Manufacture. It's Either There Or It Isn't. The Fact That You're Friends Doesn't Necessarily Equate To Great Chemistry.

I Run In A Pair Of New Balances With A Thinner Sole, But They're Nothing Like Those Barefoot Shoes That Show All Five Toes. I Have A Bit Of A Phobia About Those.

I Learned Early On To Abandon All Those Preconceived Notions You Have About Other Actors And It's Served Me Really Well. I Usually Just Try To Empty My Mind Of That. I Love Meeting Actors And I Love Working With Actors.

I Find That I Get A Little Depressed If I Don't Move My Body Each Day, So Sometimes It's Just As Simple As Walking, And Other Times It's Training For A Marathon Or Some Kind Of Personal Goal That I'm Trying To Meet.

Are You Stalking Me? Because That Would Be Super.

When I Was Younger, I Was Reticent To Be Vulnerable On Camera And Everything I Was Doing Was Just A Really Finely Honed Defense Mechanism From When I Was A Kid, And I Was Now Using This To Make A Living On Camera.

If You're Going To Commit To That, You're Going To Have To Find Some Way To Make It Bearable And Enjoyable.

It's Funny, Because There Are So Many Stereotypes Out There About Actors And Movie Stars In General, But I've Had A Great Opportunity To Meet A Lot Of Them, And Maybe It's Just Because They Don't Behave That Way Around Me, But I Rarely See That Kind Of Abuse Of Power.

It's A Nice Visual. I Had Just Done Blade And I Put On More Weight For Blade And I Thought I Might As Well Use It So I Kept It And Added A Little More. I Wanted Him To Be A Big Bear.

Graphic Novels And Comic Books Offer An Easy Foothold Into That World, And Screenwriters And Studio Execs Gravitate Toward Those, Because I Think They Can See It All Right There. It's Like, "here's What The Movie Looks Like."

I'm Terrified That I'm Genetically Predisposed To Only Having Boys. That's Frightening. By The Time I Was 10 Years Old, And I'm Not Exaggerating, I Knew How To Patch Drywall.

I Don't Get A Lot Of Romantic Comedy Scripts.

I Have Daddy Issues. So I Keep Tissues On Me At All Times.

When You're Growing Up In A Family Without A Lot Of Money And Four Boys, It Can't Always Be, 'let's Go See A Specialist, See If You're Okay.' If You Got Hurt, You Just Walked It Off.

Anyplace Of Work Where You Have A Cross Section Of Work, You Have Mini-ecosystem. A Little Representation Of What The Planet Is. You Have The Alpha Dog. You Have The Young Ones, The Old Ones. The Pissed Off One. The Quiet One.

'green Lantern' I Screen-tested For Twice. I Fought For The Role. And I'm Glad I Did, Because I Felt Like I Earned It.

We Learned Early On That We Had Chemistry And I Was So Grateful For That. It's Like One Of The Few Magical Things About Film That Still Exists.

I'm Not One To Mythologize Other Actors Too Much, But Obviously Sandy Bullock Is A Gorgeous Woman.

I Learned Discipline From My Father. Not In Terms Of Corporal Punishment, But Being Determined In Whatever You Do, And Sticking With It.

I Don't Think It's Necessarily 100-percent True. But Comic Books Have Infiltrated The Mainstream Hollywood In Ways That I Don't Think I Ever Would Have Seen Or Thought Imaginable A While Ago. But It's Also Cyclical. You Saw It In The '80s When It Became Kind Of Huge Again. And Then It Disappears For A While, Then It Comes Back Again, Then It Disappears For A While. So Yeah, There's Something About That.

I Think You Have To Let Go Of This Idea That You Can Be Precious About Everything, And Let It Be The Abstract Mess That It Is.

I've Done Things To My Body, Mechanically, That I'll Never Do Again. I've Done Stunts That I Shouldn't Have Done 10, 11, 12 Times. I've Broken A Ton Of Bones On Sets.

Character Acting Is A Much Braver Pursuit Than A Guy Who Runs Around And Intermittently Clenches His Jaw Muscles.

I'm One Of The Most Fortunate Guys Around,i Still Get To Do Those Kinds Of Movies, And Then I Get To Do Green Lantern, And I Get To Do Buried With An Auteur Like Rodrigo Cortés. I Enjoy That I Can Get Away With That.

As A Kid, I Think I Wanted To Be The On-set Dresser For 'charlie's Angels'. My Goals Weren't Lofty. No. I Just Wanted To Someday Quit My Paper Round And That Was About It.

Mathematically Speaking, It Seems Impossible That There Isn't Life Out Our Planet. If You Flick On The News, It Certainly Seems Like We Have Aliens Among Us.

Every Time I Hangout With Sandra Bullock I Think I Want To Be Her. I Want To Be Married To Jesse James.

I'm Like The Queen Of Planning And Scheduling And I'm Trying Very Hard To Stop It.

This Movie [ Buried] Is Strange, Because It's Such An Extraordinary Situation, Both As A Character And As An Actor. Both Of Us Are Going Through An Extraordinary Situation At The Same Time, And It Was Odd. It Was Weird Not Having A Co-star To Cut Away To For The Most Part. It Just Forces You To Never Have A Deficit In The Performance.

By The Time I Came To L.a. I'd Already Cried On Movies Of The Week With Two Of The Women From 'knots Landing'.

My Tattoo Is Of A Cannon In Vancouver That I Got In A Fleeting Moment Of Stupidity Maybe 14 Years Ago. A Lot Of People Have Really Beautiful Tattoos, And I Get Real Tattoo Envy. But Then Other People Basically Just Treat Them Like Bumper Stickers For Their Bodies.

The Best Directors I've Worked With, They All Have The Same Thing In Common. They're The First To Say, 'i Don't Know.' If You Ask Them, 'how Are We Actually Pulling Off This Movie?', They'll Just Shrug And Go, 'i Have Absolutely No Idea.'

I Think Everybody Involved In A Movie Thinks About The Box Office. It's The 'biz' Part Of Showbiz.

I Just Love Bikes. It's Not The Safest Passion To Have, But I Guess It's Better Than Russian Roulette.

Russian Roulette

A Live Action Movie Is Work, And An Animated Movie Is You Showing Up In Your Pajamas Once Every Three Months, Or In My Case, Just A Splash Of Baby Powder. It's Not Any Kind Of Heavy Lifting.

I Remember That Coming To America Was Scary For Me Because Everything Here Is Just Bigger, Better, Shinier, You Know?

My Father Was A Police Officer Before He Retired. One Of My Brothers Is Also A Police Officer, And I Think They Kind Of Expected I Would Do Something Along Those Lines, Like Become A Fireman Or Something.

A Producer Is Someone Who Actually Calls The Shots. An Executive Producer Is Just A Guy That Eats More Food At Craft Service.

Wouldn't That Be An Amazing Super Power? Knowing Where To Press On Someone's Neck To Make Them Immediately Urinate.

When You Have Expectations, You Are Setting Yourself Up For Disappointment.

I'm The Guy Doing Calisthenics. I'm Doing Jumping Jacks And Deep Knee Bends. I Work Out Like A British Person.

I Understand The Climate We Live In And Why People Are Curious. But It's Just Tough And Almost Emotionally Violent - For Anyone, I Think - To See Your Personal Life Summarized In A Sentence.

Laughing Can Serve You In Dark Moments And Even Help You Crawl Your Way Back Out.

When I Exhale, I Just Turn Right Into Louie Anderson.

That Was My Earliest Maladaptive Coping Mechanism I Forged When I Was A Kid. I Found That My Fists Weren't Going To Do Any Significant Protective Work For Me, So My Mouth Was It. Making My Father Laugh Was A Way To Control Him.

Coping Mechanisms

I Would Sooner Be Prime Minister Of The Moon Than Run Another Marathon. I've Been Really Lucky. I Didn't Have Any Toenails Fall Off Or Anything Disgusting Like That. I Still Have All Three Nipples.

I Think Some Of The Best Movie Stars In The World Are Guys Who Stay In Their Lane. You Can Lose An Audience If You Start Saying, "now I Really Want To Do Something That Is Just For Me, But On A Massive Scale." That's A Dangerous Mix.

I've Always Relied On Discipline To Achieve Goals Great And Small. At A Young Age, My Father Instilled A Real Work Ethic In Me - And A Fear Of Men. I Always Felt Like If I Didn't Have A Natural Knack For Something, I Could Kind Of Out-discipline The Competition As It Were. So I Would Always Work As Hard As I Possibly Could, Sometimes To My Own Detriment And My Personal Life. For Me, I Think Will Power And Discipline Are Very Synonymous.

There Are Guys I Admire. Like Jimmy Stewart And - A More Modern Example - Tom Hanks. They Managed To Do It And Have A Really High Standard For Their Work, But At The Same Time They Remained Incredibly Classy And Well-regarded Personally Throughout The Process, Which I Thought Was Rare And Kind Of Cool. And I'm Trying. I Try. I Haven't Thrown Any Tvs Out The Hotel Window Yet.

I Have A Discipline That Has Served Me Very Well In My Career And In My Personal Life... And That's Gotten Stronger As I've Gotten Older. I've Always Felt If I Don't Just Have A Natural Knack For It, I Will Just Out-discipline The Competition If I Have To -- Work Harder Than Anybody Else.

Any Great Director Is Also Someone Who Is Incredibly Intelligent About Whom They Hire Around Them.

Mostly Birthmarks Is What I Learned About Sandra Bullock That I Wasn't Aware Of.

I Grew Up In Vancouver, British Columbia.

I Dragged My Wife From Our Honeymoon In Africa And Landed Her In Ontario, Canada, When It Was -40 Degrees.

I Come From A Family Of Cops, And All Of Them Share That Understanding That They Put Their Lives On The Line.

Acting Has Given Me A Way To Channel My Angst. I Feel Like An Overweight, Pimply Faced Kid A Lot Of The Time - And Finding A Way To Access That Insecurity, And Put It Toward Something Creative Is Incredibly Rewarding. I Feel Very Lucky.

Buried Is The Strangest Film I've Ever Done. I'll Be The Only Person In The Movie. So, I'm Still Trying To Figure That Out. I Have A Short But Impactful Amount Of Time To Figure That Out And That's All I'm Doing When I Get Home. I Won't Bury Myself, Of Course... That Would Be A Sad End! And Then The Plan Is To Do Deadpool After That.

I Had A Lot Of Different Jobs Between Fifteen And Nineteen. I'd Moved Out Of My House Way, Way Younger Than I Should Have. So I Was Living Out On My Own With My Brother When I'd Just Turned Sixteen. I Did Busboy Stuff, And Worked In Warehouses, And Did Odd Jobs, And Stuff. I Earned Me Some Pesos.

For The Most Part Hollywood Is A World Of Imagination.

I Do Have Someone That I Work With And She Is Amazing And I Definitely Don't Have Unmitigated Abusive Tendencies Towards Her. She Is Very Sweet. I Also Know What That Is Like. I Have Heard My Agent Thinking He Has Hit Mute On The Phone Before He, You Know, Physically Unleashes Broken Glass And Cellphones At His Poor Assistant. It Is A Tough Job Under The Best Of Circumstances. I Understand That.

I Think Every Relationship Is Going To Go Through A Few Rough Patches. Those Are What Make It Stronger, I Think.

I Hope That I'm Always Satisfied And Content Like I Am Right At This Very Moment.

I Finally Had My Prostate Checked. And I Was Super-thankful That I Taught My Asshole To Whistle Before The Doctor Stuck His Finger In There. The Look On His Face Was Priceless.

I'm Going To Admit When I'm Clueless, And I'm Going To Ask People For Help When I Don't Know The Answer To Something.

Fragrance Is A Very Personal Gift, And I Think That's Why It Makes A Great Christmas Gift. There's A Very Distinct Signature To It, So If You Give It As A Gift, I Like To Think That It's From A Person That Thinks Very Highly Of You.

If You Ask Me To Describe My Relationship, I Mean - Words Are Too Clumsy To Accurately Describe How I Feel In That Regard, Particularly In An Interview. It’s A Strange Thing.

If You Have A Dishonest Moment, You're Going To Lose The Audience. So I Had To Not Only Light Myself In The Scenes.

I Know There Are Actors We All Want To Beat Up A Little. I Think It's Important To Do Whatever It Takes, And Whatever It Takes Sometimes Involves Some Physical Or Mental Discipline. There's A Lot At Stake.

People Have Their Complexities. They Have Their Heroic Moments And Their Villainous Moments, Too.

It's Just That... Working On Green Lantern, I Saw How Difficult It Is To Make That Concept Palatable, And How Confused It All Can Be When You Don't Really Know Exactly Where You're Going With It Or You Don't Really Know How To Access That World Properly - That World Comic Book Fans Have Been Accessing For Decades And Falling In Love With.

Falling In Love

I Don't Personally Believe That Villains Exist. Villains Are Just A Way Of Saying That Somebody Has An Opposing Conviction.

When You Sign On To Say, "okay, Yeah, Let's Develop This," Usually That Turns Into, "oh, He's Doing It." But There's No Script For Some Of These Things.

It's A Lot Of Working Out, You Know, And You Don't Get To Eat All The Things You Wanna Eat.

My Family Is As Far From A Stage Family As You Could Ever Possibly Find.

You Always Get That One Customer That Decides That Your Name Is Boy. Or Something. It Certainly Reinforces A Respect I Already Had For People That Are In The Hospitality Industry.

I Remember Being Upset Because I Was Finally Legal To Drink In Canada, And I Decided To Throw That All Away And Move To America, Where I Had To Wait Another Two Years. I Came Here To Do Improv And To Try To Join The Groundlings.

Doing A Film With Your Friend Is Probably The Best Way To End That Friendship But We Worked Together Really Well. We Just Have That Thing. Chemistry Is Something That... I Just Think It Is The Last Thing In Hollywood, The Last Magical Thing They Haven't Computerised. There's Nothing You Can Do About It - It's Either There Or It's Not And It Doesn't Matter If You're Friends Or Not. It Was Just A Bonus That We Were.

I Love Doing Six Versions Of Any Joke, So If They'll Give Me Six Takes, I'd Love To Do It.

Any Kind Of Crisis Can Be Good. It Wakes You Up.

Four Months After We Finished Shooting, I'd Been In New Orleans Shooting Another Movie And My Agent And I Were Having A Bite To Eat - Actually In London - And He's Sitting There And Goes, 'wow, I Just Can't Believe How Ripped You Are.'

Hollywood Is So Strange Because A Lot Of Times The Battlefield Is Just A Meeting. It's Not Necessarily Like An Audition. They've Seen Clips Of You And They Know That You Can Perform And It's A Matter Of "what Is Your Take On A Character"?

He Has Such A Clear Vision Of Exactly What He Wanted Out Of Each Character, Out Of Each Set, Out Of Each Wardrobe Change, Out Of Each Emotional Beat, And Action.

I Can't Say I've Ever Finished A Film And Been Particularly Thrilled With Myself Or Patted Myself On The Back. And Maybe That's What Keeps Me Going, And That's A Good Thing. It Speaks Volumes About How I Perceive Myself.

I Think The Reason That People Fall In Love With Sandra Bullock Is That She Doesn't Seem To Know It In The Same Way. She Doesn't Seem To Know It In A Way That Other Gorgeous People Maybe Would. I Think That's What Makes Her So Accessible.

Falling In Love

I Like Doing The Mainstream, Right-down-the-pike Broad Comedies As Much As I Like Doing The Kind Of Unorthodox Different Stuff.

When I Was 21 I Think I Thought I Was 31. I Was Always Kind Of Doing The Right Thing, And It Wasn't Until My Late Twenties That I Became Just A Completely Wild Asshole. So I Should've Had That Out Of My System Already And I Was Too Busy Being A Grown-up.

Entourage [movie] Really Is Established As A Genre Unto Itself, Much Like The Thriller Or The Horror Movie Or The Comedy. And Those Things Trend.

We've All Had That Moment Where The Agent Thought He Hit Hold. You Hear It's Like Hamburger Hill In The Background.

I Don't Expect Success. I Prepare For It.

I'm Pretty Good At Surprising Friends And Family With Gifts. I Tend To Go Towards The More Sentimental Side Of Giving.

Family And Friends

Well, I Came Down To La Initially To Join The Groundlings, Which Is An Improv Comedy Group. I Didn't Get In, Of Course, Becaue I'm Not A Part Of The Groundlings. I Just Assumed That I Could Walk In And Take Over. So They Said: "hit The Road Jack." And I Ended Up Getting An Agent Instead. They Sent Me Out On A Couple Of Leads And I Ended Up On A Sitcom And Van Wilder Thereafter And Then Pantsless With Sandra Bullock.

I'm Not A Hockey Fan, Which Is Probably Why I Had To Leave Canada In The First Place.

I Read The 'deadpool' Series Back In The '90s. I'm Not, Like, A Huge Comic Book Reader, Per Say, Though. I'll Check Out 'archie' When I'm In The Grocery Line, But That's About It.

We Started Training A Month Before The Movie Started And Then By Five Months In, We Were At Our Peak Shape.

I'm Not One Of Those Actors Who Romanticizes His Trials Working Out And Brags That He Can Bench Press A Panda Now.

I Just Want To Finish What I'm Doing And Go Home. I Want To Have A Weekend. I Want To Have Breakfast, A Stack Of Pancakes. I Don't Want To Not Enjoy Where I Am At This Very Moment. So, Every Time I Plan Something The Exact Opposite Happens.

There's Nothing My Brothers And I Didn't Put A Hole In. We Turned Our Home Into A Wiffle House.

I Think By Take Eight You're Kind Of Going, "oh, Wow, I Don't Know If I Want To Fall Entirely Off The Roof Again." That Stuff Is Tough, And I'm Also Not 21 Anymore. I Just Don't Like Cement. Cement Isn't Hilarious Any More.

Too Much Intensity Can Be A Bad Thing.

My Father Was Swallowed Alive By His Own Anus. It Was A Terrible Way To Go.

There's A Lot Of Actors I Think That Appear So Much More Together As The Characters They Portray As Opposed To The Actual People, So I Know I've Said This Before: Hollywood's Not A Place Where You're Rewarded For Growing Up.

I'm Just A Huge Fan Of Joe Carnahan. He's Such A Charismatic Individual And Somebody That Just Applies Every Part Of Himself To The Project He's In.
