I think everyone thinks their family is insane, and every family is insane. There is no real normal.
Fringe (2008) was the first time I realized that I could ever man up in a character and make this transition from being a boy or a young man into actually being a man.
Before my first child was born, I had nothing going on professionally really, and it's been a very blessed period of creativity for me since he arrived. It's very surreal. It's almost as if the babies are out there pulling strings somewhere, deciding what kind of life they want to be born into.
I was always prepared for my Fringe (2008) journey to end immediately. I had only signed up for a guest role but they kept bringing me back in the third season as a recurring character. So pretty much every time I went to film a 'Fringe' episode I kind of said goodbye to the show, but then they kept bringing me back.
I think what's so great about Arrow (2012) is that they really ground everything in reality.
