You have to be able to toss the thing out. You can't fall in love with your characters, and you have to know when to fight - and when to quit.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I don't love my character, I can't do it.
What I do is put my characters into situations that are so precarious there is no way to get out. And then I figure how to get them out.
I get very involved in my characters. Sometimes I have a very hard time separating my characters from my life.
Sometimes I become attached to a character because I've gotten to explore him for so long, like in the case of Ben, but sometimes I fall in love with a throwaway character who exists for only one scene in a video game like The Drunken Villager in 'Diablo III' or Sandal in 'Dragon Age.'
You have to like the characters you play.
To disappear your complete self into a character is quite difficult. I've tried it 85 times, and I've succeeded two or three times.
There are scripts when you fall so much in love with your character. And if you are lucky and offered this part, you should not tempt your fate and go to the greatest extent to be/to play this character. If you have an opportunity to do that and you do not, it's shameful.
Character is one of most precious parts of you. You can't get involved in things that will damage your character.
It's really important to stay engaged and involved in the character.
You have to like your character, because if you don't, no one else will either.
