I enjoyed the drama of 'One Tree Hill,' and the opportunity to be one of the comedic aspects, initially.
For all its flexibility, television is more a mirror of taste than a shaper of it.
I don't regard myself as an entertainer. I don't think that's where my talents lie. It always feels a bit uncomfortable.
Entertainment today constantly emphasises the message that things are wonderful the way they are. But there is another kind of cinema, which says that change is possible and necessary and it's up to you.
To me, a WrestleMania Sunday is 'I serve at the behest and at the pleasure of my beast.' I'm there to lighten the mood. I'm there to keep the mood light and not make it too heavy, and to keep the pressure off Brock Lesnar.
People need the court jester, so I keep that smile on and keep going out there to do what I do.
I'm not a broad comedy guy. I've been funny in movies, but I'm not a comedian. I'm an actor who's sometimes funny.
Culture relates to objects and is a phenomenon of the world; entertainment relates to people and is a phenomenon of life.
I'm a really evil person on TV! It's way more fun to be the bad guy.
I don't want to use my platform to speak out against anybody. I'm a rock and roller. I play music for a living.
It's kind of fun to be a clown. I've always played the clown. The clowns come on, get the biggest, juiciest laughs, and then leave.
Entertainment is about telling everybody that everything is alright but music is on the side of the upsetters and that's where I'm at.
You know daytime television? You know what it's supposed to be for? It's to keep unemployed people happy. It's supposed to stop them running to the social security demanding mad luxuries like cookers and windows.
The only way to describe my involvement in 'Planes' is that it's an absolute dream come true for me. Getting to be a bad guy in any project is fun, let alone being a Disney villain. I can't imagine anything getting better than that!
I'm a joker; that's my choice. It's my style. But I care about my life. I care about the game. I care about the people who gave me this opportunity.
I see my role in the Bonzos as being the straight man, in many ways.
In 'Chhichhore,' I play the most layered and fun character.
What I've understood is that to be funny is not my job. To see funny is my job.
Let's be honest: I'm an athlete, not an entertainer as much.
I used to comfort myself when I became an actor that it was a useful job, entertaining people. And it was important to do it as well as you possibly can.
