I am a big one for subtlety and empathy. My dad was softly spoken and didn't carry his honours and accomplishments for everyone to see.
I loved theatre and film when I was growing up in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. My mum's a reflexologist and my dad's a corporate financier.
The main thing is that the 'C' is silent, so it kind of starts with a 'Z.' Z-O-O-K-RIE. It's Ukrainian, on my dad's side.
My dad heard of a studio on the radio, and it was advertised as a place for kids to meet kids, and it was actually a studio, and that's where I met my manager and agent.
I come from a very working class background. My dad worked in a factory for 40 years. We all put ourselves through school.
I'm a soccer dad at heart. I want five kids, and I want to get married. I want to coach Little League.
I grew up in a small town in Illinois, and my dad was a basketball coach. Thanks to him, I have excellent fundamentals in both basketball and baseball.
My dad doesn't watch 'Coronation Street.' But my mum is a massive fan. I'd like to think my dad will watch it for a few token episodes, as I'm in it.
The Rat Pack was the piece that really kicked me out of that little funk that I was in and then Ted called me up and asked me if I wanted to be the dad in Blow.
My dad's one of the funniest men in the world. I grew up with him making me laugh so much I'd beg him to stop.
I've always had an affinity for lawyers. My dad is a lawyer. He's retired now. My brother is a lawyer. It's always been easy, the legalese.
I like wearing my dad's sweaters because I knew that he wore them when he held me when I was a baby.
When I was a kid, 'Blade Runner' was my favorite movie. I remember seeing that when I was a little boy with my dad.
I think if you're a competent actor with a good imagination, and if it's on the page, it makes your job a lot easier.
Jim Carrey, a comic genius, has a harder time overcoming the public's desire for him to be funny simply because he's so good at it.
Jim Carrey is a consummate actor and professional. He comes on set, knows his lines and knows his moves.
It's definitely true that there are a lot of the devices we used on 'Star Trek,' that came out the imagination of the writers, and the creators that are actually in the world today.
I often wonder why people remake movies. Is there just a lack of imagination out there that they can't come up with an original idea?
I'm an actor. Whether I'm on stage, in front of a camera or a microphone, what I do is the same - although with videogames it requires a lot of imagination.
George has only got to ring me. His imagination is so wonderful, I'd do any character he might create.
A place makes a deep impression on you when you're young. It lives with you. It's like your childhood. It fertilises the imagination.
