Actually there were [ in MacGyver] a lot of things about the original that focused on the character, but not too many people seem to remember that.
This MacGyver is a twentysomething agent who, rather than operating on his own, is part of a team engaged in high-risk missions that take them around the world. Other cast members include George Eads as Jack Dalton, Tristin Mays as Riley Davis, Justin Hires [late of the TV version of Rush Hour] as Wilt Bozer and Sandrine Holt as Patricia Thornton.
I have a lot of respect for people with a lot of talent.
Arent people supposed to do movies so that they can get girls?
The original plan was that James Wan would direct the pilot [of MacGyver ] but it didn't work out, and then it did, which is great. I'm a huge fan.
The producer and writers [ of X-Men: Apocalypse ] were kind of feeling me out with, "Are you okay with the fact that you die?" and I was, like, "Yes." That's something that people would talk about, so I thought it was cool that I died. Havok was in three movies and then I get to be remembered.
Every time I work with real Southern actors... we immediately go into white trash and we just get along really well within one night.
I took Jujitsu for four years, which has no striking. My dad had me in Taekwondo when I was a kid, but I didn't retain much of that.
I've always done a lot of stunts in the past, and I sound like I'm tooting my own horn here, but I've always impressed the people I've worked with and they've let me do more and more.
I want to do the best job I can.
I was just watching "So You Think You Can Dance," flipping channels, and I was like man, I could never do that.
I really love doing action and I go for it.
All the hard work means something. That's all you can really ask for, as an actor.
