Cress Williams Quotes

My first job was television. I got to where I wanted to go, but through a little bit of a detour.

I started to do that, but that was not fun. I felt confined doing film and TV.

In the car on my way to premieres and awards shows, I'll sit with tissue paper under my armpits so I don't soil the delicate dress fabric.

The second we started talking about doing the 'Civil War' storyline with Marvel, we brought up Spider-Man. Right away, Kevin Feige hinted to us there might be a possibility of them being able to work that out, and that's all we needed - he was in the movie the second we heard that.

I love nature like nothing else. Before I moved to Switzerland, my home was a flat in London with a garden.
