“I am a little in awe of Jeff Bridges. He's an actor I have admired for many years, and so I didn't know who I was going to get, in the sense that I didn't know what he was going to be like. And so I was pleasantly surprised that he is this kind of laid-back guy.” KnowsYearsKindLittlesGuyActorsBridgesAweLaid Back Author:James Frain
“Working with Joe [Kosinski], definitely. I loved working with Joe. For a guy who doesn't really come from the fiction world - he comes from advertising and architecture - he's extremely easy-going and very calm. He's extremely detailed, but a very generous and fun director to work with. He really encouraged me to find the fun in the part and to have fun with it.” WorldGuyFunEasyFictionDirectorsCalmArchitectureAdvertisingHaving FunGenerousEasy Going Author:James Frain
“Evil is a broad church. There are so many different ways to be evil. Sometimes it's fun to be the guy who doesn't know that he's bad, like the character I played in True Blood. He was pretty angsty about it, but he thought he was doing the right thing.” KnowsWayDifferentSometimesCharacterGuyEvilFunChurchBloodDifferent WaysRight ThingBroadsDoing The Right Thing Author:James Frain
“And sometimes it's fun to be the guy who just really enjoys it, like the guy I'm playing now on The Cape. He's more that. He's much more flashy and debonaire and devil may care-ish. He just loves doing bad in the world. That's real fun to do.” WorldMayRealSometimesCareGuyFunEnjoyDevilCapesFlashyBad In The World Author:James Frain
“I'm not particularly an expert on the genre. Correct me if I'm wrong, but usually you see most of the super-villain in his villainous role. He's the Green Goblin, or whatever various bad guys in Batman, or something like that. It's the excessive, larger than life, cartoon-ish, costumed character that is the personification of evil and has to be destroyed.” IfsCharacterGuyEvilRolesGreenVariousDestroyedGenreExpertsVillainCartoonBad GuysLarger Than LifePersonificationGoblinSuper Villain Author:James Frain
“With my guy, every now and then, he puts on a mask and does that, but he isn't that. Most of the time that we see him, he isn't that. Most of the time that we see him, he's fun to hang around with. I think that's unusual, to that extent.” ThinkingDoeGuyFunMaskUnusualNow And Then Author:James Frain
