What's fun now is that I have a show at USA that I co-wrote called 'Benched.' I'm completely behind the scenes and not the actor at all.
Some of the things I've been in are comedic, but I don't get considered for true comedies because I'm a 'dramatic' actor.
The lead actor, along with the director, plays a big role in what the vibe will be on set, and that's a huge responsibility.
As a television actor, there's a power you're given to use your image to do something valuable. As a parent, these messages are particularly important to me.
You're always looking to have a unique experience as an actor, and definitely, being punched by a puppet ranks as a singular experience in my career.
You can tell when you watch a movie, usually, what the actors' experience was on the movie, because even the smallest of roles were interesting.

I'm only wanted by directors for the image I give off, and it makes me angry. I always wanted to be an actor and not a beauty pageant winner.
Actors are trusting souls, and we must go by gut-level instinct, even after our agents and business managers weigh all the odds.
I was sort of a jack-of-all-trades in show business for a long time. I was a singer and a dancer, and then I got a job as an actor.
I hate the actor and audience business. An author should be in among the crowd, kicking their shins or cheering them on to some mischief or merriment.

It wasn't until I'd turned 50 and had been in the business 25 years that I realized I might actually have a career as an actor.
