I approach every role with the same commitment because I'm being paid for it. To not do so would be unethical.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Once people see you pulling off one role, they think you're a safe bet to do a similar role.
If you get your foot in the door doing one kind of part, that's the kind of role they call you for. I can't say I resent it - then I would resent my whole career.
I'm aware of the decisions I make and the responsibility I have as a role model. I wouldn't disregard that.
There are times when I don't take roles because I don't want to be perceived a certain way.
I accept a role only if it's something I really, really like.
But it is not conscious strategy to go for unconventional roles.
Every role you do is kind of a side of yourself. That's why they give you the part.
I'm a true believer that you have a moral obligation to keep your employees honest, and that is why you have controls, so I'm never tempted or put in a position where I could do something to defraud my employer.
I do the best I can when I'm accepting the role to say, 'This is about as much as I can do, and if that's not suitable for you, then you should hire somebody else.'
If a role isn't different, it's not worth doing.
