Quotes
ADD QUOTES
- Jon: (on playing a dramatic role and doing a Sean Penn) And die? Oh Chris Penn. I thought you were talking about Chris Penn for a minute. I would like to do something that's somewhat dramatic but I don't see myself ever becoming that serious or doing stuff that's really dramatic, but somewhat dramatic.
  Edit Share Hide
- Jon: (on voice-acting for the animated film "Surf's Up") I've always been in love with animation. And getting involved with it on this side, I never really expected it, but was definitely kind of jumping at it like, 'This is cool.'
  Edit Share Hide
- Jon: I just love bringing characters to life whether it be through the words or through their movement and being, you can get so much about a character, through the way they position themselves, or the way they move or act, not act but through the way they hold themselves.
