I don't know if I'd want to be a Secret Service agent. In the movies, it's exciting and romantic and all that. Really, most of their job is standing in a hallway for 12 hours making sure somebody doesn't come through a doorway off of a stairwell.
I wasn't interested in doing a baseball story. My favorite sports movies transcend the sports that they are about.
Movies usually find me, but I'm open to anything.
I judge movies on how much fun I had while I was doing them. I had a great time on 'The Right Stuff.' Doing that was fantastic. And there was the year I did 'The Rookie' and 'Far From Heaven,' which was amazing because those two different roles were just so far apart.
I've spent about a year of my life here between the four movies I've filmed. I can't imagine how devastated people must feel.
