I don't pick my roles by genre; that's kind of silly.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You don't want to play the same roles or do the same genre.
I don't pick roles based on how famous they are going to make me; I pick roles based on how they're going to inspire me intellectually.
It's not about choosing a specific genre; that's not how I go about deciding what movies to make.
There's an audience out there for all these different types of things. Whether it's comedy, motion-picture drama, family movie or a cool, cutting-edge indie, it's nice to know that I can span all those different genres.
I do intelligent roles. I don't want to be labeled as doing silly movies. I'm more mature than kids my age because I'm constantly surrounded by adults.
I never wanted to stay in one genre; I never wanted to be pigeon-holed or defined as the actor who only worked in one genre. I want to be able to work in all different genres. For me it's fun, and that's how I grow as an actor.
It doesn't matter to me what the genre is.
I try not to discriminate against genres.
I try to just be the person I am, with a lot of sensitivity to the genre in which I'm playing.
I choose roles that are not me.
