I hate being clean-shaven. My daughter gets very upset if I shave and says, 'Bring back the spikes, Dad.'

I have a theory that I really want my kids to know - the only coloration that they make between dad being in films and reality is just a lot of people doing a lot of hard work.

When you're shooting a film, you really don't get to be a dad, and you don't really get to be a husband. You don't really exist at all. But I do drag my family with me on location whenever I can.

Over my lifetime, the car had actually transcended the fact that it is a car. It has become a venue.

I've always been a bit of a car freak.

I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job.

I look my best when I take my helmet off after a long motorcycle ride. I have a glow and a bit of helmet hair.

I think the beauty of working with young people is they remind you of the spirit of acting and it's just a big play.
