Most of the time I rest, try to do a movie or just watch them at home. I`m into watching old movies I haven`t seen like Roman Polanski`s `Macbeth.` Occationally I go out with friends, but there`s no time to really go clubbing like I used to. I have to take care of myself because if you get sick you still have to work. I`m not much a party animal anyway. I lay low. I like to be grounded by nature, go hiking...go to an isolated island that`s not glamorous and touristy at all. And if somebody special is sitting next to me, then so be it.
Coming from the theater I love the adrenalin rush from working on NCIS. You get home and you`re exhausted, but you feel like you`ve really worked. It`s such a masochistic thing. In one episode we were shooting boxed in a container from 7 in the morning to 12 at night. There`s gunfire in the container...We had to pretend the truck was moving so we had to keep ourselves moving the whole time. I remember my knees were all bruised up because I had to fall so many times. That was taxing on the body. - on doing stunts in NCIS.
