I wanted to be an actor, like, so, so bad. I took acting classes, I auditioned for Disney, and then I realized how nervous I got with remembering lines.
I did drama at school, as a kid, but I ain't been to, like, acting school or anything. I was in a couple of school plays.
Characters I've played, they used to impact my paintings, like 80 percent of the time, and especially when I was doing an action film.
With action films, it's great if it's not just driven by action, but by a good story and interesting characters, as well. Though, there's nothin' like kicking butt!
Most actors are like, 'I want to be more like Marlon Brando.' But when I was a little kid, I just wanted to be an action hero! Then I grew up, and my interests were different.
For me, there have been times when an action movie, even a 'Tomb Raider,' has helped me get out of myself and be physical again. It's like therapy.
I like a lot of documentaries, I like political movies and political thrillers. But I also like a good action movie. I like a pretty wide range.
In the future, I want to do an action movie! I'm going to get in shape, get ripped, and have my Chris Pratt transformation. And then become a movie star like that.
I'd like to be a superhero or a supervillain in a huge action movie. I want to play, like, the Joker or something like that.
I didn't much care for the 'Dawn' remake. It was a well-made action movie but really wasn't anything like my 'Dawn Of The Dead.'
There are so few guys who do action and do it well. Even fewer who are African-American. Even fewer who have classical-theater training. So a cat like me coming in, I'm bringing all of that to an action movie.
I also love horror movies; I like me a big Peter Berg action movie. I'm a movie lover in general.
I like movies, action movies. I definitely would be an actor in Hollywood.
I like all action movies, but the ones with Jason Statham are always my favorite.
I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.
I have all the admiration in the world for somebody like Bono, who really puts himself on the line and tries actively to do something about our world situation.
I like to consider myself an actor who just happens to be Hispanic.
An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.
I'm looking forward to becoming a marvelous - excuse the word marvelous - character actress. like Marie Dressler, like Will Rogers.
I have a lot of friends who do what I do. Either they're actresses or singers or things like that.
