I try to pick characters that I find interesting and complex and that I feel I can bring something of myself to.

I like to play very raw characters, characters who have a degree of vulnerability and passion about what they're doing.

I'm just attracted to good material and great characters and that can come in any form, whether it's television or film or a theatre piece.

I like taking a character at the most intense moments of their lives and exploring all that in full and then moving on.

I don't choose something unless I think I have a personal understanding and something I can offer. It's not always thematic. I wanted to do 'The Grinch' because I wanted to direct Jim Carrey creating that kind of comic fantasy character live. I just thought that would be a mind-blowing experience, and it creatively was.

I am in love with all the characters I have played. And it is impossible to choose the best.

I like coming up with new characters. Whether it's revamping an old character no one likes or just coming up with brand-new stuff, that's kind of what excited me as an artist.

So the characters that I choose, I like to make sure that they have depth and that they have some sort of bite. It's more fun.

I always choose my movie because of a director and a story and a, a character.

I think that I've always been attracted to characters who are positive and come from a very innocent place. I think there's a lot of room for discovery in these characters, and that's something I always have fun playing.
