I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.

A lot of people only see me as villains.

Very few of my characters are totally heroic or totally villainous.

I don't play the role of a villain, really, but I like playing anti-hero kind of roles. I like characters where there's conflict, drama, and more personal investment than just being heroes.

I'm bad at picking heroes.

I have always found myself playing the hero, but I love villains. Villains have more fun.

I'm not sure why I'm so drawn to heroes who do bad things and to villains who think they're the good guys, but I do find that moral ambiguity and conflict makes for great characters.

I don't play just villains. I like to have parts that are not simply villains.

In reality, there are very few villains who view themselves as villains. They just have a certain agenda at a certain time.

I like being a villain. Villains are more exciting.
