I've said maybe too many times that I'd rather be typecast than not cast at all.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As long as I keep getting cast, I don't care if it's typecast.
It's a good thing to be typecast, isn't it?
I haven't had a problem with being typecast, but if I was only getting one type of role, I wouldn't mind. What I'm worried about is not working.
I don't subscribe to the thinking that being typecast is a bad thing.
It's been dawning on me slowly that for the past 35 years I have been cast against type, and I'm finally getting to do what I really wanted to do.
Being typecast is the enemy of any actor, so if you can try to do something that flips on the head peoples' ideas of who you are or what you can do, that's my biggest aim.
I don't really worry about being typecast much. I mean, everyone in Hollywood is typecast to a degree.
I never felt that I was typecast, but I was concerned about it. I certainly made an effort to take as many parts in theater and film that resisted that. If you only learn how to act a certain kind of role, it is very difficult to grow as an actor.
I was not easy to cast, but also, I have never been typecast.
No, the type-casting didn't happen until after Star Trek. I don't think that you get typecast until you've been cast!
