Apparently, players don't like Roddick, but I wish the guy success, he is a fighter.
Fair or not, it always sucks when everyone wanders back from Sundance talking about how bad the movies were.
I adapted a Walker Percy Novel I am going to direct with Bill Paxton in the lead.
I am in Ghost Rider but I'm not sure when it's coming out.
I did pilots here and there but mostly I was doing little bits in movies.
I don't think a show's ever changed networks in the middle of the season before, but it was cool because they gave us those extra couple years of life that was necessary to get us to syndication.
I got a lot of flak for having Kirk as the lead because they all claimed it was a much harder sell, but no one else could have done that part for many reasons.
I honestly feel like we never had a bad episode by TV standards. Every week I felt there were so many strong components of the show, especially the writing.
I missed my new hometown festival of Ashland, Oregon because I was in Australia.
I remember working on movies like Gettysburg and feeling that Jeff Daniels was kind of a mentor.
I think I was able to ride on a good wave of not seeming too desperate. There's a confidence in there that's actually rare for me.
I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.
I was living in Nogales, Arizona - on the Mexican border- and started by hitting a ball against the side of a school wall.
I've always managed to hustle; since the show ended, I did probably ten movies. I always feel like I can stay busy and do stuff.
It didn't get into Sundance although I showed a rough cut which is a mistake to all filmmakers out there.
It was all that stuff about taking your parents' car when you're 13, sneaking booze into rock shows and ditching school with your friends. I could relate to that as a former teenager, rather than as a present parent.
My Mom, she's from Ireland, coached tennis in Nigeria when she was a Missionary and turned me on to it when I was young.
No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film.
Once a film is made and it exists, someone somewhere is going to watch it and that is kind of the magic of it all.
The day I showed up to South Carolina to work, I was with my kid and my ex and our dog and Kirk was hanging with this weird guy and I kind of defined the two of them by his friend and made a vow to avoid him.
Then I did The Tao of Steve and that was at Sundance in 2000 where it did really well.
There were a lot of reasons I chose Grounded for Life - my family was close by and I didn't have to travel, and I loved the cast so much.
Ultimately, it has been a struggle- but I was in Minneapolis and Austin a couple of weeks ago, sitting in theaters with complete strangers watching this weird movie that Kirk and I thought up and I was excited to be making film.
We own our movie and are now close to breaking even, even without finishing domestic DVD deals.
Well Bill Martin and Mike Schiff were the creators and they knew we had to do a family show. Everybody came at it from the angle of having been a kid and a teenager.
Yeah, I'd done a bunch of pilots. Some that had gone for a while. One that went for 13 episodes. But I had never been on a show that had lasted more than that.
Young actors are pretty fantastic. I can't even imagine doing stuff like that when I was a kid.
