“I feel so fortunate,” he tells the audience.
“Acting is a very fragile profession, it looks very glamorous and it is in certain moments but there’s one thing I’ve learned… it is to have some perspective.”
Acting “is a chance to begin again and hopefully in the next 20 years, I am worthy of such meaningful and important roles.
“Popsy’s coming home a winner,” he tells his two step-children.
He asks them to turn the music off as they try to play him off the stage: “It’s not my first rodeo”, and they agree!
He then thanks his parents.
He adds that he’s there “to represent the trauma… of war. I pray for a happier and more inclusive world. If the past teaches us anything, it’s to let hate not go unchecked.”
