I Will Promise You That

Well, Good Science Fiction Is Intelligent. It Asks Big Questions That Are On People's Minds. It's Not Impossible. It Has Some Sort Of Root In The Abstract. So Automatically You're Getting Closer To Potentially Divine Sources Of Interest Because It Is Abstract. It's One Of The Only Ways That A Film Actor Can Express Himself In The Abstract And Have Audiences Still Go Along For The Ride. They Don't Contend It. They Accept It, That They're Going To Go Places That Are A Bit More Of The Imagination, A Bit More Out There, And That's More And More Where I Like To Dance.

I Came Out Of Independent Film, That's My Roots. I Used My Independent Film As A Laboratory, And Used What I Could Discover In That Laboratory.

When I Work, I Really Try To Get Absorbed In The Character. Unless I Want To Do Something Playful With The Camera, I'm Not Too Worried About Where The Camera Is Or Positions.

I Try To Do As Many Stunts As They'll Let Me Do. I Think It's Important For An Audience To Feel That The Actor's Really Doing It.

The Fact That 'astro Boy' Appealed To Me As A Boy In America Was Proof That The Story And Character Transcend Cultural Stereotypes.
