Quotes
 On
that note, that being said, it was damn hard kissing her. You've never
experienced anything until you've had a mature, darting tongue in your
mouth.
Acting
has given me a way to channel my angst. I feel like an overweight,
pimply faced kid a lot of the time - and finding a way to access that
insecurity, and put it toward something creative is incredibly
rewarding. I feel very lucky.
Our
relationship couldn't be better. There's no truth to the rumours we'd
temporarily broken up.
Actor-to-actor,
Blade-to-character, you get all you ever need. But I like that. And my
character is the perfect foil for him.
Four
months after we finished shooting, I'd been in New Orleans shooting
another movie and my agent and I were having a bite to eat - actually in
London - and he's sitting there and goes, "Wow, I just can't
believe how ripped you are."
He
has such a clear vision of exactly what he wanted out of each character,
out of each set, out of each wardrobe change, out of each emotional
beat, and action.
I
believe in energy like dark energies. I believe that when a family moves
into a house where six murders took place, there's going to be some bad
juju in that house. But then again what the hell is wrong with you to be
moving in that house to begin with?
I
just have like 30 guns on me at all times. My workout everyday was just
kind of putting my wardrobe on, really.
I
know that it was disconcerting to find out that Kathy Lutz passed away
in the middle of the movie which was pretty odd and we took a moment to
pause for her. They did fish a body out of the lake the first week we
were there.
I
love doing six versions of any joke, so if they'll give me six takes,
I'd love to do it. David was great that way.
If
you're going to commit to that, you're going to have to find some way to
make it bearable and enjoyable.
It
was comical because you're at a firing range, all these people are so
seriously shooting their little guns.
It's
a nice visual. I had just done Blade and I put on more weight for Blade
and I thought I might as well use it so I kept it and added a little
more. I wanted him to be a big bear.
It's
just a pump-action shotgun that has like five barrels. I ended up not
using it.
The
first scene I shot was a wood chopping scene with the kid and it was
strange for me because I had never worked with rage before on film. This
guy is so rageful.
The
kids are right in and don't even wipe the stain up. I recognize in the
movie the rationale for them buying the house. I mean the house was a
steal for what they were getting it for and this guy George Lutz had a
lot of pressure on him to make good.
There's
even a moment in the movie where I look over at Jess, and it's not even
scripted, and I'm like, "He hates me, doesn't he?" And she's
like, "Yes."
They
thought it was just prosthetics on my stomach!
This
is a huge budget movie so it was amazing to see just how he knew what he
wanted. I mean, that's all you can ever ask for from a director.
Usually
some of the best stuff comes from having something great on the page
already, so you're sort of inspired by it.
We
also had a beefeater - we called it. This big, huge Dirty Harry-kind of
gun. That was on my side.
We
started training a month before the movie started and then by five
months in, we were at our peak shape.
With
Wesley there's a bit of - David said this the other day - there's a bit
of Blade in Wes and a bit of Wesley in Blade.
