I'm not going to comment about potential jobs in the future because that's a rabbit hole to go down and get caught up in, but all I'll say is I'll go where the good scripts are.

I don't know what the future holds. I just try to do roles that I haven't done before.

I think you judge your career by the scripts that are being sent your way.

For me, I never take a job thinking it's going to grab ratings or that it's even going to be a success. I don't. I just take the job because I love the character. Or I love the script. Maybe I love the director. But whatever I do, I never think about how it will do. That is not in my hands.

I think the future is whatever I'm willing to make it.

You can't know what the future holds, though you might conjecture on it, and if you're psychic, you might venture a guess.

I admit, I'm suspicious of any career planning that involves chasing the next 'big thing,' just because it's so hard to predict what the next big thing is going to be a couple of years - or even six months - out.

You can never properly predict the future as it really turns out. So you are doing something a little different when you write science fiction. You are trying to take a different perspective on now.

I hope I have a long career, but I really don't think about the future like that. I live, like, for right now, honestly. I take it however it comes.
