My 21st birthday was awesome. I was in L.A., and it was great. I had a bunch of friends that came out. The night ended up in a completely different direction than we thought it was going to go.

The girls in kindergarten would chase us boys around trying to kiss us. I'm proud to say I was the first to stop running.

I'm a trailer junkie. I love watching movie trailers as soon as they go up.

As an actor, you get to sort of bounce back and forth in terms of the age range you play and the life experience that your characters have.

Basically, I've always raised my kids that people learn from their mistakes, and every father wants their kids to be better than them.

Following 25 children for the TV series 'Child of Our Time' has been extraordinary. The BBC's original plan was to commemorate the new millennium. What better way than to film a number of expectant mums from across the U.K.? Coming from widely different backgrounds, all were due to give birth on January 1, 2000.

I feel blessed: having a family is something that I've always wanted. Having a second child is the realization of a dream come true.

Food is about communal togetherness. Our family does sit at the table. I think it's a great tragedy if a family doesn't have a table, as there is such an atmosphere of good will and warmth when we have eight people sitting around it.
