I seem to be attracted to the quiet, brooding type. But not too brooding. Too brooding can be narcissistic. Or psychotic.

What I'm normally associated with are darker, more brooding roles.

I think I'm generally an upbeat person. Obviously I can get moody, but my whole philosophy is to try and have a good time.

I tend to get cast as a certain type of quiet, almost introverted person who's strong on the inside, but the characters are so very different I don't see it as any kind of typecasting.

If someone plays a brooding actor in a film, people think they're brooding all the time.

I get cast as a lot of sympathetic characters. I'd like to play someone really unpleasant.

People are often surprised that I am so upbeat. I'm always hearing, 'You're so light and funny, and your books are so dark and twisted.' There's a dichotomy. I like books that are dark and creepy. I don't control it - it's just what I gravitate toward.

I'm always drawn to melancholy personalities.

I think I'm good at looking moody. I'm not much good at analysing myself, but I tend to fit the strange and tortured characters.

I'm usually cast for the more goofy and tomboyish characters.
