That's double-edged: it's amazing that they're bringing me in and showing people new ideas, and at the same time it's a little hard because seventy percent of the time or even higher I'm not going to get those roles.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think I have a lot to offer doing supporting roles as well.
My roles aren't huge, but it's a start.
I'm drawn to roles because they excite me intellectually and emotionally.
I can't get the serious roles. People don't see me that way.
Maybe I don't take myself quite as seriously as I used to, but the work has gotten better and more interesting, and I'm just having more fun. It's getting more and more fun with each role.
I am very conscious about picking my roles and make sure that they are different.
I'm very conscious of the fact the directing career has taken some odd turns. Maybe there's enough bulk where I'm now pigeonholed in the 'eclectic box.'
It's a lot of work to keep reinventing yourself and coming up with new stuff, but that's what it takes to be in show business.
I've always been really picky about roles and make a point of reminding myself that it's not about the money - because, obviously, there's a lot of money to be made in this business if you're willing to do anything.
I've got quite a big fan base, and people like to see you do the same thing - that's why you get offered the same roles.
