You Always Have To Be Very Aware

I'm A Very Fortunate Person. I Get To Choose The Movies That I Want To Do. I Have A Lot Of Friends In This Industry That Don't Get To Do That. I Grew Up In L.a. A Lot Of My Friends Are Actors So I Realize Every Day How Lucky I Am To Have This Opportunity, So While I'm Here, I'm Going To Try To Do Exactly What I Want.

The Real Truth Of That Is That Much As You Want To Believe That It's You Being On Top Of Everything, You're Actually Relying Massively On The People Around You.

We All Wake Up In The Morning Wanting To Live Our Lives The Way We Know We Should. But We Usually Don't, In Small Ways. That's What Makes A Character Like Batman So Fascinating. He Plays Out Our Conflicts On A Much Larger Scale.

My Approach With Actors Is To Try And Give Them Whatever It Is They Need From Me. Direction To Me Is About Listening And Responding And Realizing How Much They Need To Know From Me And How Much They Have Figured Out For Themselves, Really.

Don't Talk Like One Of Them. You're Not! Even If You'd Like To Be. To Them, You're Just A Freak, Like Me! They Need You Right Now, But When They Don't, They'll Cast You Out, Like A Leper! You See, Their Morals, Their Code, It's A Bad Joke. Dropped At The First Sign Of Trouble. They're Only As Good As The World Allows Them To Be. I'll Show You. When The Chips Are Down, These... These Civilized People, They'll Eat Each Other. See, I'm Not A Monster. I'm Just Ahead Of The Curve. -the Joker
