What I'm normally associated with are darker, more brooding roles.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm way more attracted to character stuff and darker roles. It's just my personality, I guess.
In general, I am more interested in the darker characters when I watch or read stories.
I'm a pretty upbeat person. I think I sometimes get cast as these brooding types because I bring light and joy, which hopefully makes them more likable.
I wouldn't say I'm drawn to dark roles, and it's not like I pick and choose.
If someone plays a brooding actor in a film, people think they're brooding all the time.
I seem to be attracted to the quiet, brooding type. But not too brooding. Too brooding can be narcissistic. Or psychotic.
As an actor, I'm constantly striving to find the darkness in the lighter characters and the lightness in the darker characters.
It's quite hard to find a ballsy or complex character. So the roles I've taken are those. Lot's of people put me in the dark category.
I actually prefer getting into roles that are the polar opposite of me; that's why I've done so many dark and dreary things.
It's just interesting that people don't really know about the roles that I play that are darker. I kind of do a huge blend of really big light things but also really dark indie things, and it just sort of happens to work out that way.
