- Tough characters with a militaristic background
- Often plays raspy-voiced men of few words
- Typically does his own thorough research for his roles, not trusting advisers or coaches.
- Despite being left-handed, he was so dedicated to playing right-handed astronaut Alan Shepard in Der Stoff aus dem die Helden sind (1983), that he used his right hand for writing and other important actions on-screen.
- Once an opponent of the death penalty, he converted to supporting it after briefly listening to an audio tape of the torture and murder of two teenage girls while preparing for his role in Das Schweigen der Lämmer (1991).
- Did 2,000 push-ups (at one time) on the set of Urban Cowboy (1980).
- In preparation for the filming of Backdraft - Männer, die durchs Feuer gehen (1991), he rode along with the firemen in the Chicago area and was injured when exposed to active fire.
- Essentially what actors do is put colors on a palette for directors to paint with.
- There are many different reasons why people take parts. For me, there are basically two: one is economic -- you have to keep working, pay the rent; that's a given. The other one, for me, usually has nothing to do with the overall film - whether the script is good, whom I'm working with, whether it's going to get good reviews -- it's just the part, the character. Is this somebody whose shoes I want to live in for four months? If I don't instinctively answer 'yes' to that question, I shouldn't be doing the movie.
- Each take is essentially a one-act play called 'Now' ... I try not to think myself into any kind of structure ahead of time, because it just gets in the way of being loose.
- [2025] It used to be that the most homogenized, saccharine, easy to take vanilla stuff dramatically in the world was TV, and movies handled the edgy, crazy, over-the-line stuff. Now that's changed. Movies now feel, to me, to a great extent, like giant amusement park rides and TV examines the edgier, darker, more personal stuff.
