I was the last one to screen test for The Hardy Boys. I'd like to play that's not as clean-cut as Frank Hardy. I play him as straight as possible.

The Hardy Boys burned me out. I was recharging my batteries. It was time to return to work, but it was tough because my visibility was low.

During the time I was on The Hardy Boys, I was also watching other people's careers. I thought the next step was to be a movie star. I kept saying no to projects, and offers stopped coming in. I was no longer hot.

Good work is good work wherever it's done, in a play, a motion picture or television, and that includes commercials.

If it seems like you're doing work when you're acting, then you're doing something wrong.

I like people who are enthused about things they do, like travel, sports, work. I like being with people who have things they're excited about.
