I was offered the Gene Hackman role in 'The Poseidon Adventure' four times, and I turned it down four times. I didn't want to do that movie. I called it the upside down boat.
They wanted me to do Scream 2, and I hate talking about movies I turned down, because it sounds judgmental. There's nothing wrong with horror movies. I enjoy watching them. The main reason I turn a part down is if I think I won't be good.
My parents don't really watch movies at all.
At times, it is hard to say no to a film, but that happens, because you can't do a film due to date issues.
I have this thing that, once I finish a movie, I never see it again.
Truth is, we offered it to Tom Hanks, which pretty much every movie in America does, but Tom passed. Billy Bob said that Hanks recently called and said he's voting for all of us for Oscars, he loved the film.
I actually had a chance to be in Delta Farce, but I couldn't do it because I read the script.
With 'Love And Basketball,' every studio turned it down.
I turned down some movies that were quite good. mainly on the basis of taste.
