I'm really not interested in showing me or playing me. My gift as an actor, given to me, is to be able to become other people.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reason I wanted to be an actor is that I don't want to play me for the rest of my life and make money out of that.
There are a handful of actors who sustain interest because it's exciting to watch them get better at what they do. I want to be one of those actors.
I really have no ulterior motive in taking on certain roles. I have no larger issue that I really want to show people. I'm an actor, that's all. I just do what I do.
To want to be an actor is enough - you don't need to tell us about it. The interesting person who comes with some life experience is always the person who is going to be chosen by me.
I believe in what movies say, and I'm not an actor because I want things to be about me. I have no interest - if there was any way for my face to not be in a movie and still be an actor, I would do it.
There's something important, as an actor, about allowing yourself to be approached by people to do roles. People see different things in you.
I'm an actor. I play roles in films and theaters. I don't act out, and I don't play people.
I definitely don't see myself as an actor. I don't even have it on my passport. I've got 'writer and electrician' on my passport. I don't want anyone to think I'm an actor.
I'm not that great of an actor, so I can't, like, completely become somebody else.
You have to be selfish to be an actor.
