In the initial season of a show, you're figuring out your character and their life and their background and you're putting together all the chapters of the book.

I was lucky. My family is wonderful. And it's funny, because most of my best friends come from very large families. So it always felt as if I had lots of siblings, though in the end I had to leave them and go home. I kind of got the best of both worlds as a kid.

Marriage is not about age; it's about finding the right person.

We've all known a John Tucker. We've either known one, dated one or our best friend has dated one. I think a lot of men at one point or another have been a John Tucker.

I did some embarrassing things. I sent an email to the casting director of the 'Twilight' movies because I was reading the 'Twilight' books being like, 'I could be a really good background vampire.' And it's like, probably all I had to do was show up. But I was cold emailing people as a child.

I've often thought that my background in rock 'n' roll has gone to waste in film work. My background was that I was a rock 'n' roll drummer and I don't think I used drums in my first ten years of film scoring.

Pictures that will live on for years, like 'The Birth of a Nation' and 'Gone With the Wind,' had great historical events in the background.

It probably helps that my background is in the sciences and I can speak the scientists' language.
