Face Forward - I wash my face with whatever I wash my body with, and I use <i>Cetaphil</i> moisturizer. People would never believe this, but I never wear makeup in my movies. I come to work and I’m the easiest person to do. I go into the makeup trailer, get a haircut and I’m off. The first movie I did, they put makeup on my face and it broke me out, so I decided, ‘I’m never wearing makeup again.’

Sparta Strong - I kind of train like an Olympian, so I’ll go hard for about four months out of the year, and then maintain for eight. My workout regimen is crazy. I do a lot of calisthenics. I started doing CrossFit this year, which is how they trained for the film “300.” You’re doing kettlebells, runs, 100 push-ups, 50 sit-ups, 200 pull-ups – and you’re doing five sets of all of that.

Columbus' Closet - I have an interesting array of things in my closet. The first thing you’ll see when you walk into my closet is over 300 pairs of <i>Nikes</i>... I’m into the skinny jeans and <i>Louis Vuitton</i> sneaks. The <i>Supras</i>. The button-ups. You’ll find a lot of <i>Dsquared</i> vests and things of that nature. But, really, my normal gear is just jeans, sneakers and a hoodie...

Winter Essentials - A pea coat for sure. You need a fly pea coat. You need the military, standard blue pea coat, a tweed pea coat, and the Dick Tracy beige pea coat. You need scarves too, so you can have that ‘Chicago, New York State of Mind’ swag.

Never Short On Style - I think I’ve juxtaposed classic and contemporary. I’d call it ‘class-temporary.’ I really do like that old Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, Rat Pack style. I’m also trying to modern it up a little bit.

Ditching Diamonds - Jewelry? Nope. I just feel like it’s late. I used to be into the diamond earrings and the chains, but I took the earrings off and took the jewelry off. I just wear a watch. A Black <i>Minx</i>, something real simple and classy.

Pressure Points - I’ll go get a massage. No happy endings! (he jokes) I have a private masseuse and she’ll come to the house or come to the set and hook it up. A massage is as far as I’ll go concerning pampering.
