I would like to be able to be both a film actor and a stage actor - to be an American actor in the style of a lot the English actors who do films. They are these wonderful actors who can do everything.
I had a big part of my life in the theater in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia's changed, but I love it.
I think the reason I'm an actor is the joy I find from escaping and going to be somebody else. That's what I have fun doing.
[on making Batman & Robin (1997)]: Joel (Schumacher) would sit on a crane with a megaphone and yell before each take 'Remember everyone, this is a cartoon!' It was hard to act because of that kind of set the tone for the film.
