Personal Quotes
I'm the one who said yes to these movies, and now I'm having to pay the price
for it. I mean if I had my druthers, I wouldn't do any movies anymore, frankly.Any ordeal that you can survive as a human being is an improvement in your
character,and usually an improvement in your life.I have never been in a natural place and felt that was a waste of time. I never have.
And it's a relief. If I'm walking around a desert or whatever, every second is worthwhile.I'm just looking as always for something that's stimulating and I hope to find a
good story that's a challenge, whether it's big or small. Or that it finds me. I
don't have like a career plan. Maybe I should, but I don't.Hair color: Brown; Eye color: Green; Height: 5' 11" / 1.80cm;

Personal Quotes
If I wasn't an actor, I'd be a secret agent.
I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing
in the world.I definitely don't look my age. So I actively look for roles that will help people
change their perception of me.If you cut off your arm instead of going 'spurt, spurt, spurt' wouldn't it, like
go nuts? Or would it go with the beat of your heart?
