I don't get offered many dramatic roles. As soon as my face pops up in a movie, everyone knows I'm the funny guy.

I was a dancer from a young age. My parents were dancers; we were taken to a lot of ballet as children. It occurred to me that what I liked more than dancing the steps was acting the story of whatever particular performance I was taking part in.
