In most relationships, somebody cares about the other one more and that's usually why you get out of a relationship because it's not reciprocated.
I don't trust a girl that doesn't eat. I find that a little sketchy.
For me, as far as friendship goes, I think you truly get out of it, what you put into it.
I start a boxing movie and that's kind of something I've been able to get to the gym for. It's great anytime you can parallel a skill that your character has. I just think it makes it even more rewarding.
I drummed in some rock bands. I asked for a drum kit when I was 15 and my parents were kind enough to buy me one and I just started playing with my buddies who played guitar.
I've played drums since I was 15. My sisters and I all played instruments. I kind of started with piano and then I actually played saxophone with a jazz band in middle school. So, any knowledge I had of jazz music was from playing alto-sax back then.
For me, the greatest kind of success that I've had on a particular project or in exploring a role does come through collaboration. I wouldn't want to do a movie where everything I do the director just says, "Good job" and I'm under directed.
I think girls are surprised when you actually really listen and then you call it back at the end of the night.
I like girls who are cute and naturally funny. As long as they are not too high-maintenance, then we're good.
I think my character rallies people together to go out and drink.
I just love the history of acting. It's such a beautiful craft and you absolutely get out of it what you put into it.
As a drummer, you can't fake the instrument. A trumpet, you could be blowing air; a person who plays the trumpet could still say, "Oh, those aren't the right hand motions." On drums, you have to actually hit them. You can't fake it.
