I like characters that make me feel challenged and sort of inspired.

I try to pick characters that I find interesting and complex and that I feel I can bring something of myself to.

It feels like I'm starting to come into my own in terms of where I want to go artistically, toward more complicated, interesting characters.

There's so many different people that I'm fascinated by. Different kinds of characters that I meet in, like, everyday life, that I'm like, 'I don't know how you exist. Like, you're so fascinating.'

I also try very hard to create characters - both heroes and villains - with psychological depth.

I tend to gravitate toward conflicted characters, and a character who is exploring chaos theory and population control and the difficulties of love and family is pretty rich.

I enjoy being characters rather than myself.

I like to play very raw characters, characters who have a degree of vulnerability and passion about what they're doing.

I love making characters real and believable, through my own experience and choices.

I try to get roles that challenge me in what I can do and who I think I can portray. For me, it's about creating characters with really fascinating stories, because that's what I like to watch on TV.
