| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | As an actor, I’m more versatile than most people realize. I could play Hamlet, even though I look more like King Kong. |
| 2 | [on the new movie version of The A-Team (2010)] There is only one A-Team. That’s why me or any of the other guys won’t do it. It won’t be like the original. When we did it no one got hurt. There will be people dying in this one and there will be sex. Not R-rated sex but sex scenes. They are going in a different direction. If they don’t want me as B.A., then I’m not going to settle for second best. |
| 3 | [on appearing in The Expendables (2010)] I’m waiting for the call. But it sounds like a “Dirty Dozen” type of movie. Besides, why would I want to be in another team? I was in the best one. |
| 4 | [on Rocky Balboa (2006)] I was asked to do it. Not do a fight scene but appear in a cameo. But it wouldn’t work out scheduling wise. I thought it was good but the fighter in it was weedy. The first Rocky (1976) and Rocky III (1982) are the best. |
