When you read a script, you get a feeling from it.

Sometimes you're reading something, and you don't know it will be important in your life. You're reading this script, and you start to get involved. It's not an intellectual experience.

It was pretty much the way that it was when I first read it, although one exception would be that some ideas that I had were also incorporated into the script.

When I read a script, I try not to judge the characters. I try to have an open mind and really see what it makes me feel.

Reading a script is usually as exciting as reading a boilerplate legal document, so when you read one that makes you feel as if you're seeing the movie, you know it's something different.

With acting, when you're reading a script, you're regurgitating someone else's words. There's a whole part of your brain that's off duty.

Sometimes I read a really good script, and I just know that it's not a good fit.

Personally, I read a lot of scripts.

I'm terrible at reading scripts. I love to read, and I hate reading scripts.

I really believe that when you're playing a character that everything is contained in the script. If I'm pulling from things from my own life, then I think I'm being disingenuous to the character and the story.
