Happy Birthday: Virginia Madsen

Born: September 11, 1961 in Chicago, Illinois, USA

When you say no a lot as an actor, you’re going to go broke, and that’s been the hardest thing to go through in the last 10 years. Being a single mother and having financial problems is a nightmare.

Happy Birthday: Scott Patterson

scottpatterson.jpgScott Patterson

Born: September 11, 1958 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

I write a lot of music in my time off and I compose most of the songs on guitar. I’ve actually gone into the studio and recorded a few things, but it’s tough trying to sell a song. It’s all about finding that hook, that melody.

I think L.A.’s terrific. You fly an hour and a half and you’re in the mountains in three feet of powder. I also think it’s a much better city if you’re working as an actor. If you’re not working and you don’t see your dreams coming true, there can be a lot of heartache.

Happy Birthday: Tyler Hoechlin

tylerhoechlin.jpgTyler Hoechlin

Born: September 11, 1987 in Corona, California, USA

He is an actor, known for Road to Perdition (2002), Teen Wolf (2011) and Everybody Wants Some!! (2016).

[on suiting up as Superman for Supergirl (2015)] The first couple of times it definitely took longer to get into. I started to think that Superman’s greatest power was actually being able to just jump into [the suit] as quickly as he does, because it’s not quite as smooth the first couple of times you do it.

Happy Birthday: Clark Johnson

clarkjohnson.jpgClark Johnson

Born: September 10, 1954 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

[on casting Nina Hoss in Homeland (2011)] It was tough to get her, and she gave so much to that role. The character was on the page, but as an actor you can bring so many more colors to it. She was just so nuanced and worthy of being a collaborator with Quinn and in (sparring) with Carrie. I mean, you’ve got to bring your A-game to do ‘Homeland’.

(1977, about her decisions on working with her then partner) I would love to work for Steven [Spielberg] but, right now, I want to make it on my own first. I do not ever want to be known as “Steven Spielberg’s girlfriend”.

Happy Birthday: Ryan Phillippe

ryanphillippe.jpgRyan Phillippe

Born: September 10, 1974 in New Castle, Delaware, USA

(On working and being with Reese Witherspoon on the film Cruel Intentions (1999)): It was great. I’m the luckiest guy in the world. Not only personally but professionally. She was an asset to the movie and we begged her to do it. She didn’t have as colorful a role as Sarah’s and mine, but she did an amazing job. Really elevated the piece.
