I'm a fan of daytime drama I totally get it. When we are doing scenes that are romantic or will get the audience riled up I feel like I'm a fan in the room going 'People are going to be so mad right now!'
The dark comedies tend to be in a non-releasable area. There can be romantic comedies. There can be dramas. But there's no 'dark comedy' inbox for the advertising.
I think the American West really attracts me because it's romantic. The desert the empty space the drama.
People ask me all the time 'Are you fed up with reality TV?' At the end of the day it can affect my career in the sense that the more reality shows there are the less scripted dramas out there but I can't ever really knock them. I started on 'Popstars ' which was a reality talent show. I have respect for them.
I have two dream roles: One would be a biopic of someone I admire and respect and the other one would be some sort of action drama film similar to a 'Bourne Identity.' I just really want to do an intelligent action drama film.
It is the sincerest thing I have written caught by the drama of a soul struggling in the contrary toils of love and religion - death brought them into harmony.
Religion enabled society to organise itself to debate goodness just as Greek drama had once done.
First play I ever did was 'Footloose.' I played the part of Willard when I was 16. I think I wore my drama teacher's jeans and her belt - that's how small I was. I know a lot of Willard's back story from the musical that's not explored in the film. Like he's got this whole relationship with his mama and he sings this song 'Mama Says.'
Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody's piano playing in my living room has on the book I am reading.
I am a happy person and I choose to be a positive person. I think some people think my life has been tragic and there have been these horrible dramas but things really have been and are fine.
