Chaske Spencer (pronounced Chas-Kay; born March 9, 1975) is a Native American actor and producer.
I feel like giving back is in my blood.
The acting part is easy; it's the preparing - lifting weights and getting your body in tip-top shape - that's the hard part.
On the film sets of 'New Moon' and 'Eclipse,' I feel safe. It's like you're in the center of the hurricane, but outside is where it starts to get chaotic.
I remember my dad, who coached football, would buy some of his players football shoes when they couldn't afford it.
I have my own production company called Urban Dreams.
I think people should look at learning about Native American history the same as visiting Washington, D. C. , and seeing the monuments there. It's all part of the package.
It's not a bad day at work when you just have to take your shirt off for a big franchise movie. There are worse jobs out there!
I stay off the Internet.
There are some hot girls in Vancouver.
Twilight' fans are great.
What I like about New York City is nobody cares. If they do, they don't ever approach. They just give you a 'What's up?' and that's it.
It's really surprising that what you put on paper, people will believe.
I remember hearing stories from my mother and father about their parents and grandparents when they were taken off the reservation, taken to the boarding schools, and pretty much taught to be ashamed of who they were as Native Americans. You can feel that impact today.
It's just amazing to do something that's part of a pop culture phenomenon.
The actors I admire are character actors.
