I've always thought of myself as a character actor, even though I've played some leading-man roles.

I always thought of myself as a character actor. I never thought of myself as a leading man.

Fortunately and unfortunately, people don't see me as a character actor. They see me as a leading man or nothing, which makes it really hard to get work.

I'm a character actress. It doesn't mean I can't do leading roles; I don't think of myself as a leading lady.

I always knew I'd be more of a character actor than a leading man, and I always wanted to take that and run with it.

I don't have to be a leading man. I can be a character actor. That's really what interests me anyway.

I'm a character actor.

I think every leading man wants to be a character actor, and every character actor wants to be a leading man.

I've never thought of myself as a classic leading man. I'm a character actor who happens to play leading roles. Come on, look at me. I'm really Desperate Dan.

How you look is part of what acting is, but the way I look at it, every actor is a character actor. Someone once told me at a casting, 'You're a character actor in a leading man's body,' and I can live with that.
