But it is not conscious strategy to go for unconventional roles.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Choosing a role is very difficult. There's no way to have a strategy.
The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do.
There are times when I don't take roles because I don't want to be perceived a certain way.
Maybe I'm naive, but I subscribe to the idea that nobody is actually making strategic decisions about their career. Trying to do that would be like playing three-card monte on Canal Street.
You know, I don't support esoteric approaches to acting.
I really don't make a concerted effort to try to find a type of role.
I'm hoping I can evade a type and go for roles based on what I consider plausible and what I consider good.
If I were a strategically minded person, I think I would have a far different career.
I am very conscious about picking my roles and make sure that they are different.
If a role isn't different, it's not worth doing.
