ADD QUOTES
- Sam Witwer: (about his role on "Star Wars") It means quite a bit to me. When I was a kid I'd swing imaginary lightsabers around and now I've had the opportunity to get paid for it. But really, I love Star Wars because that myth is a wonderful tool to teach children a basic morality. For that reason I think it will continue to maintain it's relevance and justify it's existence. So to contribute in a tiny way to that cause feels good.

- Sam Witwer: I wouldn't say I enjoy villains as much as I enjoy creating a character that believes that what he's doing is reasonable. Many people make the mistake of having too much fun with villains, I think. My take is that I don't think these villains themselves are having ANY fun. I think it's an unpleasant place to go, psychologically. The fun is in watching, from an audience perspective.

- Sam Witwer: (About his transition back into working after his move to California) I auditioned for nearly a year and didn't book anything. The good news is that apparently the casting directors liked what I was doing so those auditions kept coming. Eventually I booked a 2 line role on a show called JAG and sloooowly the parts got bigger and better. I'm very thankful that I had to appreciate how difficult the business is before I had any kind of success.
