There's editing, and scripts to read and edit, and casting, and all the elements of production that just sort of take up the normal downtime that you would have as an actor. So there's not a lot of that for me.

Dogs are my favorite people.

My morning ritual is to get up and feed the dogs, take my daughter to school, and come home.

The younger the fan I can have, the better. I love talking to kids.
