All actors tend to be the same messed-up people.

In my experience, it's usually up to the actor how a character is portrayed.

Sometimes you need to put your own characteristics into the actor, and you take different things from the character that you admire - sometimes you can't see the boundaries anymore.

The truth is, good actors are always looking to do something different. They are dying to play slightly odder characters or work on movies that aren't straight down the middle.

As actors, sometimes we want our character to go somewhere different than it goes, but that's being an actor.

Sometimes, if you leave yourself open, an actor can bring nice nuances to a character.

As an actor, you always want to keep it different, change it up, and, you know, just to keep yourself inspired and work with interesting characters.

Every actor will tell you it's so much more fun to play the bad guy because usually those characters are more complex and more broad and more interesting, and have more sides to them.

Sometimes the better an actor is, the less he's noticed.

It's much less interesting as an actor playing someone who's purely good or purely evil.
