Most of my confidence came from being with ladies, because I certainly wasn't getting any acting jobs.
I grew up the son of an acting teacher but I've never been really good at articulating what that process is. It was always a bit more internal.
I started acting when I was seven-years-old. By the time I was 17 I would say: "If I'm not a star by the time I'm 18, I'll get out of the business."
I approach every film I do in the same way, whether it's an action film or not an action film. I guess if a certain physicality lends itself to action, but I started acting before I reached puberty. I was 7 years old when I started acting. It wasn't until I became a bouncer in New York.
