Sharlto Copley

So there is a part of me that knows that I will do more characters, even if I have to produce those projects myself to get those projects out there. If the right characters come along, I would love to. I would jump at the chance.

Julia Glass

Against the etiquette about which I am otherwise all too conscious, I frequently, and unrepentantly, overdress for the occasion.
5
Zoe Kazan
I think most actors jump at the chance to do something where the camera's on them all the time.
6
Sir Mix-a-Lot
Successful people jump at opportunity and take advantage of it.
