You don't realize how much a part of your character is part of yourself until you are no longer playing that character.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think there are parts of myself in every character I play.
I've always felt that almost every part I've played has been a character part. I mean, I look at it that way. I can't help how I look or how I seem to people.
When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.
When I'm creating a character, I don't see it so much as playing someone else as just playing a specific part of myself under certain circumstances.
Every part I play is just a variant of my own personality. No real character actor, of course, just me.
I get pretty attached to the majority of the characters I play. I can't help myself.
In every character you play, as much as you hate to admit it as an actor, but there's an element of you that you bring to it. Either the character helps you discover that element of you or the other way around, where that element of you helps you discover the character.
Character is what you have left when you've lost everything you can lose.
You'll always end up filling out a character. It might be with aspects of yourself.
I don't play a character. It's totally just an extension of myself.
