It's great to play the hero. You get all the good stuff. You're in it all the way through.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When you're not playing the hero of the story, then you have to know that you're always a foil for the good guy. I love playing that. I think that's always an interesting place to be.
I've never played a hero before so I jumped at the chance.
Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore.
Every character I play has to be the hero of his own story, the way we're all heroes of our own lives.
A lot of people want to see this idealized version of heroism, all pretty and perfect, and I'm not interested in playing the goody-goody hero at all.
Playing big, heroic characters with heart is always a lot of fun. I enjoy making movies like that, and a lot of people love to live vicariously through those characters.
The reluctant hero is always fun to play.
HERO is a combination of my personal feeling and the commercialism.
I was never built to play the hero. Physically or emotionally... And they're not as rewarding to play. At least for me.
I mean, I'm not going to play the hero of something.
