I definitely have character arcs in mind for each character unless I kill them.

When you're telling a story, the best stories, every character has an arc. Every one. And that arc is usually about finding yourself, or about at least finding something about yourself that you didn't know.

I love drama. I love to play an arc.

I am a big proponent of character arcs that show us how people change over time.

I love the creating part of taking on a character. It is fun to be another person and create what it would be like to be that person.

Every film you're commissioned to write is all about an arc; usually, the arc is that the world creates a change in the character, usually for the better. To not have an arc, the messages and ideas in the film became more prominent.

I enjoy pushing my characters to the limit. No matter how far out there I go, I look for things that make the characters human.

I love playing characters that are strong, when there's physicality involved.

For me to have the opportunity to stay with one character for, God willing, a long period of time, is really exciting.
