There's only one barometer for the commercial success of a film and that's the box office. The obsession with box office doesn't annoy me. It's the main part of the business, if you get irritated with the main part then you're in trouble.

There's a perception in the industry that if the actor is not working or has taken a timeout, he or she has left the film circuit.

I am open to working with new directors as long as the script excites me.

I keep myself busy, I read a lot, watch a lot of TV, and do a lot of gardening. I do stupid stuff and I love it.

Why is the feeling of insecurity so prevalent in this field? Because the actor is such a dependent person on other people. If I am a painter, poet, composer, I am not really dependent on others.

There are all kinds of stupid people that annoy me but what annoys me most is a lazy argument.

Well, there are some things that I just can't get out of my head, and they start to annoy me after a while. Sometimes they're of my own creation, as well - and they're just as annoying. It's not only other people's ear worms that bug me, it's my own, as well.

Facts and particulars annoy me.

I have little brothers and sisters, and they annoy me a lot, but I love them so much because they're so smart and witty.

Why do I want to annoy people? Because annoying people is funny.
