How do you stay so consistent in the game without burning out? MM: Firstly, I will say that I am so grateful to be working as solidly as I am, really, for what is the last 20 years. I’ve been very fortunate in terms of the projects that I’ve been able to do, the range I’ve explored and the different genres I’ve gotten to play in. I think I’ve dabbled in the things that are facets of myself – somewhat dramatic and comedic and physical. I enjoy working in spaces that are small, such as the independent world, which is fulfilling in terms of collaborating with young filmmakers and bringing something to life. And the bigger films, the Mission Impossible movies, for example, feed a different creative beast in me. That’s on the professional side, of course, but personally, I have a rich family life that I get to go home to – a beautiful little family that I just treasure, more than anything.
