I am conscious about not getting typecast, but obviously I have to keep picking up great roles so that I don't get typecast.

I try to avoid typecasting by doing different roles.

When I was first starting out, and I was less established, I was really concerned about being typecast.

I never felt that I was typecast, but I was concerned about it. I certainly made an effort to take as many parts in theater and film that resisted that. If you only learn how to act a certain kind of role, it is very difficult to grow as an actor.

I've said maybe too many times that I'd rather be typecast than not cast at all.

I've been fortunate enough in my career that I haven't been typecast at all.

I have been offered roles in other things, so it's just about making sure I make my decisions wisely because I don't really want to be typecast.

As long as I keep getting cast, I don't care if it's typecast.

I don't really worry about being typecast much. I mean, everyone in Hollywood is typecast to a degree.

Typecasting is an interesting thing because, in a way, if you're good at something, you're going to work at that thing. In other ways, you constantly have to change people's opinion of you as one thing, especially if you want to play different roles. You have to shatter that image sometimes.
