They all saw my short films, and I think that changed their opinion of me as just a guy on a sitcom because they liked my movie.

I've always wanted to have kids of my own, it's just tough finding a woman I wouldn't be wasting my DNA on.

I think Jersey is a character (in the film), and there's a dual meaning with a state of mind - a garden is where things begin.
bit came disney early feeling felt good happens maybe people putting reviews saw seeing time
Maybe that happens for the filmmakers, but I don't really feel that. I think they felt that before people started seeing the movie and Disney started to see what they had. And Disney saw some early reviews and that thing from Time came in and I think they were feeling a little bit of pressure. Then they started to see that they really had something good as you can see what they are putting into marketing.

In fifth grade, we had to write a story and read it in front of the class. When I read mine out, the class were just belly laughing. And I remember being like, 'This is the coolest!' So I want to dedicate my life to trying to make people laugh. I can't imagine doing anything else.

I think I felt compelled in a way because if I hadn't written the part, I never would have been offered the part. There are at least 10 guys who would have been offered the part before me.

That image is a couple different people's homes that I knew growing up.
dressing success
I'd always fantasized about writing a new play. Even when I had all this success in television, what I was daydreaming about in my dressing room is that one day I would do it.
I'm putting myself out there in a way I don't know if I ever have before.

I am really driven, but my drive doesn't affect the conversations I have in my head about life, and worries and fears and insecurities.

When we shoot 'Scrubs' I spend every waking hour of my life in an abandoned and haunted hospital. All I can date there are ghosts and they tend to be horrible snugglers.
