When things aren’t working? “I get up and do what I do,” Theroux said. “When I do things I don’t necessarily want to do, or I get stuck in a situation where I’m like, ‘Oh, this was not the best choice,’ I’m still aware there’s something to be gleaned from that experience.”

“You have to just find some nugget that makes it worthwhile,” he continued. “Otherwise you’ll completely give up. Bad work experiences are instructive: (A) what I shouldn’t do again; (B) how things are done wrong and how I can do better.”

Theroux and Aniston went their separate ways after two and a half years of marriage and nearly seven years together as a couple.

“In an effort to reduce any further speculation, we have decided to announce our separation,” they said in a statement through their rep at the time. “This decision was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year. We are two best friends who have decided to part ways as a couple, but look forward to continuing our cherished friendship.”

Since then, he’s been photographed spending time with a slew of new ladies includingSienna Miller,Emma StoneandLaura Harrier— but only one seems to have moved in with him: Kuma, his new rescue dog.
