Peters: "Usually, I'm an over-thinker."
Peters: "A lot of people don't know that I'm really a silly guy. I don't take anything seriously. It takes a lot of energy for me to take something seriously."
Peters: "I'm goofy. I'm silly. I like to have fun."
Peters: "Just thinking about that, if that were to really happen, if an alien were to come down and really abduct you, how terrifying and how earth-shattering would that be? Your whole world is just destroyed. God is destroyed. It's kind of a fascinating thing to think about."
Peters: "I'm a worrier."
Peters: "There's something that's sexy about a guy who has the strength to kill somebody, but is also vulnerable enough to be in love. It's just those two sides - like, I don't know why, but women for some reason aren't attracted to normal guys, like, guys who are in between."
Peters: "But I love Halloween, and I love that feeling: the cold air, the spooky dangers lurking around the corner."
Peters: "I used to look at horror movies as being really real and it would totally freak me out and give me nightmares. Now I watch and think, 'whoa how'd they do that?'"
Peters: "If you get an audition and you're out of work, you just say, 'I've gotta go on this.'"
Peters: "I think it's harder to go from comedy to drama than from drama to comedy. Seeing you dramatic all the time, they crave to see you being silly or funny. But, seeing you in comedy all the time, it's hard to see that person go be serious, for some reason."
Peters: "It's scary how effective movies can be. It's a very powerful medium that I think is sometimes abused."
Peters: "I think comedy and horror are very similar in that there's a very direct intention. So you're trying to be funny, or you're trying to be creepy, and that literalness - I take to that."
Peters: "I'm not very good at dating."
