SOAPING IT UP
"Soap operas are nice gigs. I never considered it before, because when I first started in L.A. there was no crossover. If you were a soap actor, you were a soap actor. If you were a model, you were a model. Now everything has so much cross-pollination that you can work in different venues. My agent said, 'You should think about doing a soap.' So I put myself out there." — Soap Opera Weekly, 1/17/04

GETTING CLOSE AND PERSONAL
"Working with Glenn Close was like studying acting at Yale for a semester. Actually, you didn't have to do any acting. She was so authentic that it made your job very easy. She was a very generous person. On a personal level, too, she was very sweet and a pleasure to work with. Mel Gibson was terrific, too. He is a funny man and pleasant to be around. He is a good Scrabble player. We played Scrabble in the makeup room." — Weekly, 1/17/04

FAR FROM THE MANNING CROWD
"It's nice, because I had instant concrete relationships. There was so much history with Todd. I became a core character. It was grounding. I could look at old scripts and ask people, 'What was your relationship with Todd like?' Whereas with Walker, no one knew. And, of course, that's what [acting] is all about — your relationship to people — when you figure out how to play a scene." — Weekly, 1/17/04

OH MY TODD!
"It's like saying that if you play Hamlet, every actor who plays it has to play each line with the same inflection, the same intention. I don't care what the other guy did. That's his time. Those are the characteristics that Todd had simply because he was the only one who played it. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a name and words on a page. What I do after that is up to me. I'm playing it now. I know that sounds very arrogant and overconfident, but it would be no fun to try to mimic somebody."— Weekly, 1/27/04
