I have and will continue to vigorously pursue opportunities in all mediums.
From Jimmy Smits
I'm usually very analytical when I'm prepping stuff: real into the head thing.
I don't want to have the bounds put on me in terms of mediums.
For me, the bottom line is what's on the page.
Of course you draw from yourself, but the artistic nourishment you want to get is be versatile, do something different, and I think I got a chance to do that in a lot of different ways.
When you're doing 22 shows on network television, the writers are going on vapors towards the end and, as an actor, you're just trashed by the end.
The great thing about working in cable is that, since the season is truncated - we only do 12 shows - the writers are more at ease in terms of mapping out the trajectory of the story and the characters.
Doing a truncated series is like doing a long movie, which allows for a certain artistic freedom. After just 12 episodes, you can take a breather and do other things for your career.
As an actor, it's hard to approach any character with negatives.
An actor tries to be versatile, to immerse himself in a different culture.
