So many actors wear wigs nowadays. Besides, if someone is hiring me because of how I wear my hair, I don't want to work with them anyway.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't wear a wig. I'd feel terrible onstage with a wig. I hate to be so 'Actors Studio'-ish, but I like to feel it's me out there.
British actors wear wigs a lot. I find it to be a nice ritual at the end of the day, take the wig off, clean the makeup off, go home, leave work behind me.
I have some wigs at home just for fun. Throughout my years, my hair has been treated in a not very nice way, so I have to be careful.
People who work with me think I should cut my hair. They say casting directors are less likely to hire me with long hair - that they don't have imaginations and can't picture me looking normal. People literally have conference calls about my head when I'm not around. I mean, obviously I would cut my hair for an amazing part.
Every actor has an obsession with their hair. You can see it on set, and you start to realize it's completely silly. I can be very obsessed by my hair, but all these hours spent trying to style it are useless, because ultimately, you can't change your haircut. It's all the same.
I am all for trying out various kinds of hair styles. I have even worn a wig earlier in a film where I essayed the part of a woman.
We want to pigeonhole things and people, but it is absurd to regard me just as a furry wig-and-britches actor.
I've worn wigs. I've done a few plays where I have to wear a wig because they needed longer hair.
Actors work and slave and it is the color of your hair that can determine your fate in the end.
When I perform, I usually wear wigs because I love them.
