Actors are there to represent the human condition back to itself. It's never about the actor. It's about the content. That's what I strive for in my work.

The whole point about becoming an actor is variety and changing roles.

As an actor, you're always changing.

It's like playing tennis, you play a different rally with different people. Every actor is different and the chemistry between actors is different.

Theater actors like to change character roles. They don't like to always do the same thing.

In the end of the day, you are human. Film is a job which is not an individual job; you have tons and tons of people behind you - you have a whole crew of people working. But, an actor is the face of a film, so you get all of the good things, but you get the bad things, also.

Being a film actor is very different from a theatre actor.

Audiences change because life changes. Countries change geographically, climatically, socially and morally. Many things happen, and cinema, in a sense, reflects what's happening in the world.

I just have always been so interested in the way actors and actresses present themselves to the world because I think it is very important and it affects the way people see you as an actor.

You know how when you read a book and it becomes a movie, and it's different than you pictured? In some ways, acting is a lot like that.
