Zitat des Tages von Verne Troyer:
There's times when you're having dinner with a good friend and you're in the middle of a conversation and somebody comes up and cuts you off. Can you sign this? Can I take a picture with you? I'm adjusting to all the attention.
I think it was a good challenge for me to get my reactions across without being able to speak.
I went to see the film with a regular audience for the first time on Sunday, and was basically swamped.
I can play the leading man. I can play the action hero, maybe in just a different way. I look at it as, you know, if you set your mind to it, you can do it.
I've done approximately 15 films, and most of the things I've done have either been stunt or costume work.
In Men in Black, it was a very small character, no pun intended.
Doing stunt work is risky, but it's something I enjoy.
What I really enjoy the most is seeing what the crowd likes. I enjoy making people laugh.
In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.
There's nobody else that can double me - except for a doll.
I grew up in Michigan, in a very small town, Centreville. In my graduating class, I had like 92 people.
The Amish like to live a very plain lifestyle, the way they think God intended. It sort of brings you back to, like, 'Little House on the Prairie' days or something.
I just take it one day at a time. Austin Powers has given me a lot of opportunities as far as my career.
Me being able to beat up Austin Powers? I mean, how great can that be?
I felt probably more uncomfortable than Beyonce. But I can't answer for her.
We were doing the dance routine and I dislocated my knee. I've been doing stunts for a long time and it's kind of weird that I'd dislocate my knee just dancing.
Now I get to pick and choose exactly what I want to do.
I'll be one of the Who's of Whoville.
I'm a big sports fan. College football is my favorite.
In the film, I'm not very mobile, like in the space suit.
If I did everything, I probably wouldn't be here talking to you. There aren't too many people who can actually double me, so I do most of my stunts though.
I was just the perfect person to play the Mini-Me character.
