I don't come from a Hollywood family. I don't have Hollywood friends. I didn't have any connections.
I'm happy because I was proud of what I did at 'SNL.' It's the only time probably in my life that I didn't have any regrets. I worked really hard. I played really nice. I threw myself into it. I committed. Beyond that, what else could I have done?
I'd love to do a Marvel movie.
I loved the movie 'Dangerous Liasons' with John Malkovich.
Evvverrrrybody wants to know what it's like working with Jennifer Lopez.
I love working so much. For me, working equals happiness.
A great time in my life was being totally single and actively not dating. Just saying, 'I'm gonna not be in a relationship. I'm gonna not date.' That was a super fun, awesome time.
Rejection and I are old friends.
When my parents were divorced in the late '70s, early '80s, the climate was that you should screw over your ex as much as possible - get the worst lawyer in the world, all that. That's not what people are out to do anymore. It feels cruddy to try and destroy each other just because you're breaking up.
I have this weird optimism that when things are not good - like, really, genuinely not good - that we shall persevere.
I know friends who have this sort of incredibly intimate relationship with their sibling. And I don't get it: it wasn't like that in my family. In some ways, I'm envious, because they have someone that's so completely in their corner. And at the same time, I imagine it may at times feel like it's stunting.
When you're casting a show, you have your idea of who you want it to be, and of course, those are going to be very well-known names.
As much as I would have loved to look like Jennifer Aniston in 'Friends,' that didn't happen. And I really tried! I hit that gym! I got a flatiron. But it didn't happen.
My rule of thumb is to always do what's on the page first. Then you can talk to your director about playing with it. Improv frees me up in a character, but I would be mortified if the writers who agonized over their words assumed I thought my improv was more valuable.
Everyone's job is invaluable. Film and TV production is collaboration.
I made a pact with myself when I was 12 that I would only work with people who make me happy. I choose happy.
I say yes to everything if I like the overall thing that's being put out there. I'll do anything with David Wain.
I'm definitely an observer of human behavior. I always have been.
