When you work with someone you don't quite know, you have to figure the director out, and you can come up with ideas that are counter-productive.

I started acting as an amateur when I was a kid, but I wanted to become a diplomat. It was self-centered and weird, but I had this idea of going out in the world and solving conflicts and making the world a better place. But I kept on acting, and eventually, I just dropped out of school and continued acting.

I'm not lazy on set. I'm lazy in the rest of my life.
