As an actor, I'm constantly striving to find the darkness in the lighter characters and the lightness in the darker characters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In general, I am more interested in the darker characters when I watch or read stories.
As an actor, I tend to enjoy going to the dark side.
It's not that I'm necessarily looking for things that are so dark and emotional. But if I see something where the character goes through enormous change, it's very appealing to play all those levels, and that is probably going to involve some dark moments.
All the characters I play are all inside of me in a way, and they're all different, the darkness, the lightness, whatever that is.
I don't want to get into a comfort zone. I am getting characters of varying shades, which I believe will help me grow as an actor.
I'm not dark; I'm not. The main thing I consider in accepting a role is less the tone of the movie and more whether I think it's a good film, whether I like the character and whether I think I could do it. I don't think, 'Oh, I've done X amount of dark films.'
I'm drawn to dark characters, and to things that are really weighty.
I happen to still like really dark, dramatic, fractured characters. They're the reason I got into movies.
Character, like a photograph, develops in darkness.
Character is what a man is in the dark.
