I love being an actor, especially in movies, because you get to be someone else.

In all of my press junkets for 'Spy Kids,' I was saying that my two favorite actors are Johnny Depp and Steve Carell. And I ended up getting to work with both of them.

It was a dream come true working with Johnny Depp. He's always been my acting idol. Working with him and watching him work taught me a lot as an actor. He's very down to earth and a lot of fun to hang out with.

From the age of seven, I knew I wanted to play football - I didn't think about it in a professional sense in terms of making money from it; it was more about the social aspect of being with my friends and losing myself in the sport.

It's so wrong when some players think, 'I scored five goals; therefore, I am a god of football.' You're nobody.

When I got there, there were two sides: business and football. Business I understand. It was pretty obvious to me what we had to do. But the football side was like the Holy Grail.

When cerebral processes enter into sports, you start screwing up. It's like the Constitution, which says separate church and state. You have to separate mind and body.
