Zitat des Tages von Luke Wilson:
I'm probably one of the worst people with numbers you've ever met. My brothers always kid that they think I'm counting cards in Vegas, but I'm just trying to add things up.
Especially with a comedy, you've got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It's not like drama where you're trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You're trying to figure out what's the funniest way to do something.
When you're in Los Angeles, nobody bats an eye, they're so used to seeing actors, they just act really cool.
I like to think I can keep a pretty level head.
You can get pigeonholed in Hollywood and people think of you in a certain way.
The thing about being an actor is that you're in the business of not growing up.
When you do a comedy, the goals are much clearer to me.
I have never, for better or worse, thought about a 'career path' or anything like that.
There definitely is that element of guys who like to party and have a good time and... putting off for as long as possible the idea that they'll actually have to settle down.
I never had to say to myself, 'OK now, I've got to grow up and work for a bank, or go and sell real estate.' I never had to make that kind of break.
I'm really just doing whatever comes my way and trying to stay busy and get better at what I'm doing.
Do men have a biological clock? I feel like I do. Something is definitely ticking!
That's one of those things that will really hurt me personally, if I label a character or think about what it might do if it were to do well. I just try to do a good job with it.
It's always been my personal feeling that unless you are married, there is something that is not very dignified about talking about who you are dating.
I always laugh the hardest at the stuff you see in day-to-day life. It's great when somebody can tell a joke that really makes you laugh hard, but to see some kind of personal interaction that no one could write is so good. Those are always the things that make me laugh.
I'd always envied actors who got to play real people or got to do research. I've always just had these scripts where, I mean not in a bad way, but it was right on the page.
Whatever kind of movie it is, you're going to be more into it when you care more about the drama, or you'll have a better laugh if you feel like you know the people better.
I like to think I've done a lot of different kinds of roles, but obviously I have done quite a lot of comedies.
I don't really have a type of woman.
As a movie-goer, I really like to watch all different kinds of movies and, as an actor, I always feel like I could do pretty much anything but a musical.
I've worked on movies that are being rewritten as you go, but you take so long and so much time doing it, that it's not really an issue knowing what's going to happen or how the movie is going to end.
