[on Saving Private Ryan (1998)] When your first experience of acting for somebody else is Steven Spielberg, you learn to observe. I certainly knew I wasn’t going to be offering any advice. I just sat back and watched him work.

[on working with director Rob Cohen on ‘Alex Cross’] Rob loves to shoot action and that’s the stuff I don’t do. But you never know when you’re going to need it, so I was happy we got along, because I was looking over his shoulder a lot.

[on performing with Rachel Nichols] The first thing we shot was our bedroom scene. It was like, ‘Hey, how are you? Let’s get naked.’ It was good to get that out of the way early in the shoot.
