I never had a good physical base.
The most famous secret base, I guess, would be Area 51, which a lot of people have heard of as a kind of mythical place. Well, it’s a real place.

It’s actually kind of cool that women have taken to me. Because now I have a whole different demographic when it comes to the audiences. I have women who come out and support my movies, and that is a huge demographic for me, which is great because some actors don’t have a female base at all.
In any grass-roots campaign, building an ongoing base of support is as important as winning the ultimate goal.
