He did a lot of drugs in high school.
He’s acted in a lot of crappy TV movies.
He has oily skin.
He is shy and awkward.
He is extremely boring in interviews.
His ‘big comeback’ TV show, ‘Hack,’ was a failure.

He is taller than he looks on TV.
He was in Lars Von Trier’s acclaimed film ‘Dancer in the Dark.’
