Like when I host a party. I hope my guests get along. But if not how interesting!
You want to play another kind of character in another genre and it's been something I've been trying to do if I can in the career so far and it's something I hope to continue because it's interesting to me and you get to do different things as an actor.
A lot of presidential memoirs they say are dull and self-serving. I hope mine is interesting and self-serving.
I spend plenty of time in London and it doesn't scare me but it's a lonely place even if you've got friends there. My job takes me all around the world meeting lots of interesting people. But I think if I couldn't get home if I couldn't get back to what I consider my real life I'd be frightened.
Recently I heard a 'wise guy' story that I had a party at my home for twenty-five men. It's an interesting story but I don't know twenty-five men I'd want to invite ta a party.
Acting is probably the greatest therapy in the world. You can get a lot stuff out of you on the set so you don't have to take it home with you at night. It's the stuff between the lines the empty space between those lines which is interesting.
I usually write away from home in coffee shops on trains on planes in friends' houses. I like places where there's stuff going on that you can lift your eyes see something interesting overhear a conversation.
What I've learned in my life it's a very interesting social study for me to go back and forth between being the guy at home and being the guy on the road and being the guy in studio and being the guy in the interview. The environment around you has so much to do with your character and when I'm home my character really changes quite a bit.
I much prefer working with kids whose life could be completely upended by a reading of a book over a weekend. You give them a book to read - they go home and come back a changed person. And that is so much more interesting and exciting.
It's passionately interesting for me that the things that I learned in a small town in a very modest home are just the things that I believe have won the election.
