I've gone through several cycles. When I was little, I was the cute kid with missing teeth and funny one-liners. Then I moved on to be the young guy who wanted to be a grownup.
I drive an old Camaro that I got when I was 16. And I've been known to do stupid things with my time, like Friendster.
I am not a morning person.
The character I played on 'Everwood' was so serious and melancholic that after doing it for four years, it really started affecting my soul. I was becoming Ephram.
I'll tell you one big misconception. Cops never say 'Freeze!' It might be misinterpreted. They might think you were, like, ordering fries. Or that you had fleas.
It's hard to reinvent the wheel with a cop show. But 'Rookie Blue' has a pure emotional center that's not cynical.
I don't have a cell phone.
I don't cook.
Some projects feel like the stars are aligning for them from the very beginning.
I backpacked all around the world and kind of found myself. Then I settled back in L.A. and found 'Rookie Blue.'
When I was 16, I was in a film called 'The Patriot.' I spent every second I could on the set watching the director and his team bring America circa 1775 to life. From that moment on, I was hooked.
A couple of my favourite cop movies are 'I Love a Man in Uniform' and 'The Long Goodbye.'
I didn't watch a lot of cop shows growing up, but I am a huge fan of 'Southland' now.
We've all been there, right? When you meet someone personally and then you find yourself working with them professionally, it's awkward.
Odd, interesting names are good to me.
My career will come full cycle one day when I play the father of a cute little kid missing teeth who spouts one-liners.
That's basically how I learned everything as an actor. I was just a kid, and I worked with these actors, and I'd ask them questions, and then something would work for me, and I'd try to move forward with it.
Acting is such a strange thing, it's different for everybody.
I'm not a very good interview, usually.
