It is quite different, but I love doing a series because you get to live with a character for a much longer amount of time. And the other aspect of it is that you have a steady job.

Sometimes you become friends with the characters you portray.

The characters I'm most emotionally involved with are like friends you leave behind when you move away. You don't see them regularly anymore, but you still love them and keep in touch.

Once I fall in love, finishing a story leaves a hole in my heart. The characters become your friends.

I've sort of dealt with the characters' lives more; particularly the women characters.

I'd never thought much about a series, because I liked the idea of picking a script I liked with a character I thought I could sustain for an hour. In a series, you live with one character day in and day out - and you only hope it will be one that will not drive you crazy.

In a series, you really need to stay open-minded. It's not like a play or a film, where you can create and fully commit to your character's back-story.

All of my characters tend to be montages of different people I've met: little bits and pieces of their personalities put together.

I get very involved in my characters. Sometimes I have a very hard time separating my characters from my life.

My character's kind of grown up with Katniss. The beginning of the story, they're more or less brother and sister than anything. They're best friends. They've been keeping each other alive. It's a little frustrating, for the character. As the character, not as me.
