More From John C. Reilly

Leonardo is the most incredible actor, on the planet, with a couple of people alongside him. getting to act with him is just [amazing]. i walked away from my audition for that and i couldn't believe that i'd been acting with him. i've worked with amazing people, but my friends freak out that i'm working with him. i freak out in a geeky acting way. they freak out in a starstruck way. he's leonardo dicaprio, and his fame is so big. that's a complete tangent about that.
Couple Believe People
Well, it was interesting because when i was going to do it the first time in my head was leonardo dicaprio [for chris] and marlon brando was going to play the character that hal holbrook eventually played. but then when it wasn't to be and there was no promise that it ever would be i think some part of me didn't want to attach specifics to it anymore - actors or anything else - because i wanted to see it made that much more badly.

I think he [leonardo dicaprio] is a terrific actor. and i've - i've been rooting and voting for him since "gilbert grape." i thought he was so amazing in that one. he was a young man, really very young boy.

One casting director told me, 'you're the next leonardo dicaprio,' and when i heard that, i said, 'let's talk about how i don't want anything to do with being like leo.' he's an amazing actor, but the films we're pushing to do are different. i'm going my own way--in a big way.

Good acting is good acting, however you learn it. some people who haven't studied are amazing. some people like leonardo dicaprio are naturally gifted - he's learned technique by working with people early on.

If i were doing somebody else's script or i adapted a book by philip roth, on set there could be a million different interpretations of the material and people could argue with me. certainly on synecdoche, new york we had discussions and arguments, but i felt like i had authority because i'm a writer.
