Trademarks

  • His career is associated with two sides of law: often times he plays police officers and psycho-killers.

Trivia

  • He initially turned down the role of Boyd Crowder on Justified (2010) because he was concerned it would be a negative stereotype of Southerners. He finally agreed to shoot the pilot, in which Boyd was originally killed. However, his character did so well with testing audiences that it was decided to reshoot the end of the pilot to allow Boyd to live and be a recurring character.
  • He has had significant dental work done after his teeth were knocked out twice as a child, once while playing baseball and again in an accident on a diving board.
  • Born in Alabama but raised in Georgia.
  • Good friends with his Justified (2010) co-star Timothy Olyphant.
  • Grew up in an 1850s Georgia farmhouse.

Quotes

  • The life of a character doesn't just exist between action and cut.
  • My heroes are Robert Duvall, Forest Whitaker, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and Sean Penn.
  • I don't take a scene or word for granted.
  • [on his childhood] I was known as the kid who raised himself... my mother wanted to party and have a life. She was young. I grew up with people smoking dope on the porch. I'm not sad about it at all. And she's really showed up since. But when I was young she didn't do a lot, other than making sure I had clogging lessons.
  • [on his roles] I've always been invited through the back door. It hasn't been easy for me. I would never have gotten the jobs I did without the advent of cable television, which brought back the kinds of raw, authentic leading actors you had in the seventies: [Robert] Duvall, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones.
