'Breaking Bad' has definitely opened many, many doors for me.
'Breaking Bad' was such a high plateau.
A lot of people get emotional in movies that are cartoons, but not in TV shows.
From the very beginning, I've always just wanted to do something I've never done before. I'm still just trying to be on that path. It's all about working with filmmakers that you believe in.
I always gravitate towards characters that are so opposite of me.
I always gravitate towards the independent side of things, just because those are the stories I always fall in love with, but you don't really get paid, and living in Los Angeles is expensive, and I have a mortgage to pay. So it's good to jump onto a studio film and then in all my other time do small passion projects.
I consider myself absolutely a character actor, and that's what I want as a career. I don't need to be the lead star or any of that, as long as I'm doing stuff that I'm proud of, really.
I definitely had a very religious upbringing. My father was just instilling good morals into us at a very young age, and it wasn't super-strict, but it was a loving, warm household.
I didn't come from any money, but even when I was on 'Big Love' - people think you're on a series and you're making bank.
I don't even draw on my life experiences when I'm acting. I just try and make it feel like I'm living through that person's skin.
I don't understand why every guy is not a romantic. I enjoy it.
I drive a 1965 Shelby Cobra. I love classic muscle cars.
I get random meetings, like, 'Ron Howard would like to sit down with you.' 'Really?' If 'Breaking Bad' hadn't happened, Ron Howard probably wouldn't want to sit down with me. Because he would have no idea who I was.
I got spoiled on 'Breaking Bad.' Playing the same guy for four or five seasons, you get to really explore who the character is.
I gravitate toward edgy, intense, dark films that just grab you by the throat.
I grew up all over Idaho - I was born in Emmett, a very small town.
I hate musicals. There, I said it.
I have 14 nieces and nephews.
I knew that I tend to always gravitate to the indie side of things.
I live a good life but a pretty simply life. I just store all my money under my mattress. My wife and I travel, and I bought my dream car, the Cobra.
I love coming of age stories that have struggle.
I love diving into different skins, skins that make me feel deep emotions.
I love everyone over at Netflix. They're all fantastic and an absolute joy to work with.
I love playing odd roles.
I mean, I've never really had much security, to be honest.
I moved back to Idaho when I was 6 or 7 and then lived in a little town called Twin Falls and then moved to Boise. So quite different from L.A. I'd been to Disneyland a couple of times, and that was the closest I'd been to L.A.
I moved out to Los Angeles a fan of many people, and meeting people I put on a pedestal that just disappointed me. Without fans, this business would not exist, so I try and say that we're all on the same level.
I need to listen to chill music when I'm driving. It prevents road rage.
I never really thought of myself as being an action hero or a leading man or any of that. I'm a character actor.
I rode a shark once. I wouldn't recommend it. It was fun, but I thought I was going to get eaten the entire time! Nothing against sharks. I love sharks. I just don't think we are meant to ride them.
