I like spending a lot of time fine-tuning all the small characters. I think it really pays off.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When you're doing lots and lots of episodes and you're playing the same character, it's great because you really get to know the character and it becomes a really fast style and you find subtleties in it.
I enjoy working on new, different types of characters. Playing a range is what excites me.
I like my characters to be ones I think about long after I've finished reading the script.
Getting in and out of a character takes its own time for me.
Often the starting point for characters, for me, is finding a little, most minor detail, and I'll go from there.
I love playing really strung out characters, and characters that are really pushed to their limits and losing their mind. I think that's wonderful. To be able to lose it, in many ways, is just great fun to do.
I like to play a wide range of characters. The more they're unlike me, the better I like it.
When I take on a role, all I tend to do is get to know the script and ask millions of questions, and keep fine tuning what I think the character is trying to say.
I don't live that much with the character. I find it hard enough having to spend so many hours with the character during the day.
I love playing different characters all the time, so I'm concentrating on doing other stuff.
