To be honest, I watch way more dramatic films when I'm chilling at home. I think when you work in comedy, you just want something different in your private life. Makes you feel balanced, I guess.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel more comfortable in drama. Comedy is a high-wire act. I find it stressful. It's a precision science in a way.
As for doing more dramatic work over comedy, I do whatever turns me on at the moment.
I actually gravitate toward comedy a lot when it comes to what I'm watching, but maybe that's because I've been on such dark work the last four or five years.
I've worked a lot in comedy. As much as I love playing dramatic roles, it's always nice to be able to have some humor around when working.
I watch comedies most of the time. That's what I gravitate toward. But I think the kinds of roles people see me in are sort of the opposite of that. I'm not really sure why.
I just like comedy in general. My film work, which has been at times more dramatic, has been satisfying. But I never feel quite as good and as light and blissful as when I'm doing comedy.
I think the kick to doing comedy is just to get in a film with really funny people and let them do their jobs. I find that in most comedies, I'm not the funny one, which works out great.
I think comedy stems from being honest, often painfully so. I hope I can achieve that perspective in my own life and also have fun.
Comedy will always be central to what I do, it's just an instinct for me, but I am a writer and always have been.
As long as I stay engaged with everybody else, then I'll create more comedy. It's just when I shut off and stay at home... What helps me is just to keep moving.
