More From Jason Bateman
- "I remember my dad working with me on breaking down my script and writing out a back story for my character and all that stuff."
- "I played a ton of team sports growing up, and team wins are just incredibly gratifying."
- "My goal is to get another 30 years out of this business. So I need to figure out the fuel to do that. And so far, I think it’s respect and quality and company, not celebrity or box office or stardom. It’s not a sprinter’s approach. It’s more like a long-distance thing. You can stick around a lot longer if you kind of slow-play it."
