Well, he seems lazy. I like R. Harris for his earlier movies, he's a very good actor technically. But I've watched an interview with him and he told the interviewer that he enjoys doing nothing. And he dreams of having one day when he'd be able to do absolutely nothing. Then (as he said) he could answer to such a question: "What have you achieved today?" with: "Nothing. I have achieved nothing."
