Every good villain has his or her own vulnerability.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Vulnerability is huge. I love to see that in characters. It's something I feel like a lot of my comedic heroes have always done.
I find the trick to playing a villain is that you can't be bad for the sake of being bad. It has to be rooted in some sort of heartbreak.
You know everyone loves to be the villain.
Villains are often attractive.
In reality, there are very few villains who view themselves as villains. They just have a certain agenda at a certain time.
It's important for a villain to be as threatening as possible, whether physically, mentally or emotionally... however you want to do it. If you can combine all three, well, that's the ultimate villain.
Nobody is a villain in their own story. We're all the heroes of our own stories.
The villain of any story is often the most compelling character.
I think one's relationship with one's vulnerability is a very delicate and precious relationship. Most people try to hide, disguise that vulnerability, and in doing that, you, I think, diminish a great source of power.
It's the first villain that I've played in a movie that has absolutely no vulnerability and no innocence, nothing whatsoever that is likeable about her other than she's so bad.
