I want to make a clear distinction between people who take acting seriously and people who call themselves actors because they've been on reality TV or something.

Actors are just entertainers, even the serious ones. That's all an actor is. He's like a serious Bruce Forsyth.

So many people are called but few serve as actors, you know what I mean?

I have never taken myself that seriously as an actor.

Acting is a very limited form of expression and those who take it seriously are very limited people. I take it seriously.

I just think the less you know about an actor, the more serious you'll take them as an actor because they will disappear a little bit.

'Serious acting' is the kind of acting that I don't ever respond to.

I know that some actors take acting terribly seriously. I take it seriously in that if someone pays me to do it I know I have to deliver.

Well, an actor is an actor is actor, to paraphrase someone or other and the opportunity to work, to have a steady engagement, certainly seemed like an appealing concept to me.
