Wisdom worth sharing, words worth remembering.
For a long time all I wanted for Christmas were books about outdoor survival. I was convinced that the woods were calling me. I camped a lot I took classes. At 18 I told myself if I don't live in the woods by myself by the time I'm 25 I have failed.
When I found out I had to take off my shirt in 'Teen' movie I panicked and hit the gym. I was like 'It's going to be on film documented for my children to see. I can't be 140 pounds. I need to put on a little bit of muscle.'
I am single and not looking to be in a relationship.
What do I geek out about? What am I? Hmmm. I love movies. I watch movies. I like big sweeping epics like Ed Zwick stuff: 'The Last Samurai' 'Legends of the Fall' 'Blood Diamond' 'Glory.'
I don't know any form of art or entertainment that can affect people the way movies can. I know it sounds ridiculous but they can change your world. They can change your views.
All my good movies nobody sees.
I've managed to do movies and still keep a lifestyle where I can go to ballgames go to a grocery store like everybody else.
But my happiness in this world – my level of peace – is never going to be dictated by acting.
I love acting. It's my playground it let's me explore. But my happiness in this world – my level of peace – is never going to be dictated by acting.
It seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet.
I decided to make 'Captain America' because I realized I wasn't doing the film because it terrified me. You can't make decisions based on fear.
If your goal is to be the biggest movie star in the world a 10-movie contract is gold. It was never my goal. Up until now I made movies – and I have a nice house a nice car. I'm fortunate happy and grateful. Life is good.
