Before Footloose, the things I'd done weren't cute. In Diner I was an alcoholic.

Things could be worse. You remember that, and you go on with your life.

I like to hike and cook. I enjoy furniture and design - not making it, just looking at it. I'm always kind of trying to spread my interests around and try new things.

From the time I signed on to 'The Following,' things have already vastly changed in the entertainment world in general. It's an adjustment for me.

I did a year of 'Guiding Light', and I was going to be a movie actor or a stage actor, but not a TV actor. That just wasn't going to happen. And obviously, things changed so remarkably.

For my wife and I, for so many years, a lot of our identity was based on being Hollywood haters. We were like, 'We're east-coast. We're New Yorkers. This is just a place that we have to come to, but not by choice.'
