When I was thinking about The Lion King, I said, we have to do what theater does best. What theater does best is to be abstract and not to do literal reality.

One of the reasons I love to jump back and forth between mediums is that film does allow me to be more literal. I can go to the real place. I can go to the Coliseum, and I don't have to fake it.

These are the hands of Rachel Joy Scott and one day, will touch millions of people's hearts.

I rarely get recognised. It's always a shock when someone notices me. I always think they must be confusing me with someone else.

I've done a lot of training in martial arts. I started out in warring tempo, I did sports jujitsu, and I've also practiced extreme martial arts.

At 'Price Is Right,' people feel so safe there and loved. And if you can't jump around on 'Price is Right,' then you can't jump around anywhere, you know?

At times I'd much rather talk about other work.

I'm a horror movie fan to begin with, so to come back to the genre, I feel like horror has been very good to me.

It's the friend you call up at four o'clock in the morning that really matters.

There are people I know who won't hurt me. I call them corpses.

There's never been a parent in my life.

Is there room in my heart for you to follow your heart?
