You know what? I did a lot of things that were deliberate, and they all backfired. I was trying desperately to become Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler, and it did not work for me.

What’s great about TV, and what I love about being on ‘Parenthood,’ is you have this family. I’m now going on four years of working with the same 100 people, and that helps you feel like your life has more roots. It’s more conducive to having a family, and you’re staying in town. So that part is amazing.

They’re making so few movies that you really just have to make it. It’s going to be the only way you end up getting work. I don’t believe anyone’s going to really go out on a limb and just throw millions of dollars on someone that’s not been proven. They’re going to have to show somebody something at some point.
