I am happy being able to play roles with people my age because once you do something really mature there is no turning back.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have been really lucky to play roles younger than myself for most of my career.
It hasn't been until the last couple years that I've started playing close to my age. But it's fun playing the younger roles because it takes you back to the teen years.
It's nice, though, getting older and being able to do different roles.
I think one of the greatest joys I have now in my career and in my profession is to be playing at an age where I can appreciate it more than I used to... It's a whole different lens you look through the older you get.
I want to do amazing roles fit for my age in 30 years. I'm sure I'll be less popular and have less offers then, but I think I'll be able to do act well for my age at the time.
I can't worry about whether roles will be there for me when I'm older.
Character roles definitely age better than your ingenues. You don't get to keep doing that.
I've played a lot of younger, more coming-of-age roles as well as roles that aren't such an imposing physical presence.
I definitely don't look my age. So I actively look for roles that will help people change their perception of me.
Getting older has been a bonus for me. I feel lucky that parts are being written for someone my age and I am around to play them.
