“I have a passion for words. I love words. And I'm just learning and developing my skills for words. I do books and I do journalism and plays. I have a broad palette. I don't have a great eye for direction. I love working with actors and I work very well with them because I appreciate what they bring to the table.

“Nearly every taping or audition has to be in an American accent, so you don't have a choice; you just have to get good at it.
