I've actually been given a great gift. When I walk into an audition with a director, I'm carrying no baggage. They haven't seen me in anything, even though I've done nine films.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I keep meeting directors that are so irresistible. I only do irresistible films, because I don't need to act to feel myself alive.
I've gone out of my way to not take baggage with me from film to film.
My first film, 'Vanishing on 7th Street,' I really just kinda went in for it. Just gave it my all at the auditions.
My whole career, only one person has stepped up to back me. All these people say they like your films. They say this and they say that, but no one actually does anything.
I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.
I've been fortunate, but I'm also not very precious about making sure I'm the star of a film.
I've been directed by other actors, and being an actor doesn't make you a good director.
I'm really not interested in showing me or playing me. My gift as an actor, given to me, is to be able to become other people.
I haven't signed as many films as I'd like to because there are no good roles, as disheartening as it is to say.
It is important to keep the filmmakers interested in you so they can offer you everything and anything. We actors are not given work on the basis of audience poll; the filmmaker will cast you after they see and like your work. It is essential to do different kind of films and not get typecast.
