Justin Chon

I love Irvine. That's my 'hood. I went to USC and used to come home every weekend. It's in my comfort zone.

I don't think I'm a star. I just love to act. I'm not thinking I'm even close to where I want to be.

In life, try your best to do the right thing. Have fun while you're alive. Take advantage of every asset you have. Don't take anything for granted.

I see a lot of actors for whom life becomes one big schedule. I guess I try to be more sensitive to my private life - to take a breath of fresh air and be in the countryside or on a golf course.

The blessing that this film business has given me is that when I walk into a school I automatically have everyone's attention. They want to hear what the guy from 'Con Air' and 'Desperado' has to say.

I think for any actor, for the roles they deeply, truly want? They always have to audition for them.
