So listen, man, "weird" is my middle name. I'm ready for anything. The weirder, the better.
There are these little towns outside of L.A. Once you get an hour and a half, two hours out, you get into these little, tiny towns that are almost like stuck in time.
I'm an actor that cares.
I wanted to work with somebody who seemed like he came from the same place that I did, which is that total immersion and learning about the world around, from this very gritty, dark side, and had access to that.
David Ayer was put on my map, at that point, and I always kept note and clocked his career. When he started directing, I saw Harsh Times, I saw Street Kings and I saw End of Watch. I gave my agents a list of directors that I wanted to work with, and at the top of that list was David. I wanted to have that experience.
I screen tested for Training Day many years ago, which was David Ayer's script with Antoine Fuqua directing.
Sometimes people say things they don't mean, and you just have to let it go.
I'm an average guy. I wasn't the dude who was gonna sit at the stage and dump all my paycheck into the girl.
When I'd be out-and-about at a club and the music would come on, I was never the guy that was gonna dance. But after Magic Mike - I have like two or three go-to moves. That's what Magic Mike gave me.
The reason I couldn't pay my rent was because I was one of the worst drinkers you'd ever seen in your life.
I quit because that thing inside of me that was driving me to drink that way was causing me so much pain that I was starting to get afraid for my own life, and my own health. It wasn't necessarily one instance. It was a lot that had piled up.
I went to a school that's predominantly computer science and engineering. So, there's a real shortage of hot girls, let's say.
Every weekend the drama department would have parties. The 20 hot girls on campus? All of them were in the drama dept. So we'd have somebody standing guard at the door to keep all the computer science guys out. We had to guard our women at all times.
In the age of camera phones and screenshots and Twitter.... At the end of the day, I want to share my life with somebody, you know? I want picture albums. I want to look back at our time together. And I also want kids. And if you want kids, then you want marriage.
I did [Henrik] Ibsen and [Anton] Chekhov for years. Obviously I didn't get the kind of recognition I have now. Somebody once told me, "You ride the horse the direction it's going."
Once you become famous, being single becomes a liability.
I was single long enough, and when I was, it wasn't about putting notches in the bedpost.
We've all had those phone conversations. Things are heated, you're in a position where you're gonna say something nasty. Instead, you say, "Oh, I've got that thing in the oven." Lie. Get off the phone. Don't perpetuate a bad situation.
[ Being naked on scene ] was like walking a tightrope without a net - with a giant fan blowing at you.
I'd rather be a liar than an asshole.
I play characters who are comfortable naked, but that's something you work up to. I did a play off-Broadway in New York when I was in college. It was full-frontal nudity. It's nerve-racking.
Doing theater is like walking a tightrope without a net.
Women do a lot of uncomfortable things for men - and I appreciate it all. I appreciate high heels. I appreciate thongs.
What's funny is that male strippers don't wear thongs anymore. They wear flat backs.
I'm a nerd. But I'm not that hard-core.
