"No, no, no, no, no. I would never point a gun at anyone and pull a trigger at them... I might have killed myself if I thought I was responsible, and I don't say that lightly", the actor said during the interview.
"I have dreams about this constantly now. I go through my day, and I make it through the day. Then I collapse at the end of the day. Emotionally, I collapse", he added.
