 Some people make a career out of doing one thing, but I wanted to diversify my body of work. |
| When you are the lead in a romantic comedy, you have to worry about people really liking you. |
| This film is what it is. It's a campy thriller horror movie where you go and have fun. With these types of films, you can't take it too seriously. They are what they are. |
| I enjoy what I do, but it's more challenging than people think. |
| There are a lot of people in this business that don't work consistently. |
| You start making movies and people start seeing when you go to places, and all of a sudden you are getting clothes for free and all of a sudden you are getting food for free. |
| It's hard when you see a scene where it's raining, and we have the rain machine, and you see it for 5 minutes, but that scene takes all day to shoot, and you do it with rain, and the dry off, and go back and do it again. |
| Producing is easier, I can just be at the set overseeing the story. |
| Unless you are really grounded and have a true sense of reality, you can get lost in that and a lot of people do and that's why you see so many people with successful careers but with destructive lives. |
| I would like more challenging roles. I definitely would like to something that's more challenging. |
| I'm just happy to be working consistently. |
| I think that Mos Def is the best actor, but when you talk about rappers in films, I don't really think the quality of the acting is most important because most rappers are put in movies because of the personality and people want to see that. |
| I want to tell stories for everyone, primarily. |
| I did a film which was considered an independent movie with Dustin Hoffman and Andy Garcia called Confidence, and that's the type of film I was willing to take a chance on that because of the caliber of people involved with the film. |
