I really want to do a dark character. Not really a bad guy, but someone dark and mysterious. Where everyone says, 'Ooh, it has to be her!' and at the end you find out it isn't. Just someone who looks guilty.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Character is what a man is in the dark.
It's fun to play a dark character, but you go home at the end of the day not feeling very good about yourself. You go away feeling dirty. It seeps into the air.
As an actor, I'm constantly striving to find the darkness in the lighter characters and the lightness in the darker characters.
I don't want a perfect character, I want a character who has, as strange as it sounds, some humanity, some flaws, some needs.
I'm drawn to dark characters, and to things that are really weighty.
I'm not dark; I'm not. The main thing I consider in accepting a role is less the tone of the movie and more whether I think it's a good film, whether I like the character and whether I think I could do it. I don't think, 'Oh, I've done X amount of dark films.'
I'm not a very dark person.
Character, like a photograph, develops in darkness.
The Dark Satirist, like the Dark Knight - that could be a good name for a superhero.
I'm not a dark person at all, so those roles are the most challenging. I don't think I'm necessarily drawn to dark things. It just seems to work out that way.
