There are fewer and fewer roles that I haven't done already, or archetypes that I haven't played, and to break out of that box, the most interesting stuff is television.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I gravitate to the roles, not necessarily television or film. It's just the fact that, for me, the most interesting roles have been in television.
I try to get roles that challenge me in what I can do and who I think I can portray. For me, it's about creating characters with really fascinating stories, because that's what I like to watch on TV.
For a long time I did not want to do television because I did not want to get stuck playing the same person. I wanted the ongoing challenge of a variety of roles.
I enjoy working on a series and having a long stretch of time to get to know and connect with my cast and crew. It also gives me the ability to play a character over the span of countless hours of television.
I'd rather do a lot of movies than a TV series and do a lot of different roles than be stuck in one TV thing.
There are so many roles on TV that I don't covet. I see them, and I'm glad I don't have to play them.
I'm basically a movie actor now, and my big roles are mostly horror movies - unless I'm doing a guest star or something - and occasionally I try to get back into television.
I play a huge variety of roles.
I don't ever want to get boxed in, playing the same characters, over and over again. That's why I prefer features over television.
All I will say is that I'm playing a lot of different roles that, to be honest, are more interesting and demanding than any I've played before.
