What I truly get excited about is not the genre of a movie or the size of a part - it's character. I like to find characters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like movies about people and movies with characters; that's what I'm drawn to as a person who likes to create these characters within the story, but I like it all, really.
I quite like some of the movies that have many characters in them.
I don't have a favorite genre. I love to work and live vicariously through every character. It's all about trying to bring the character to life and get the story across in a way that resonates with the audience. It's always interesting and challenging in a gratifying and unique way.
I'm just attracted to good material and great characters and that can come in any form, whether it's television or film or a theatre piece.
The truth is that filmmaking is not really an actor's medium; it's really a director's medium, so all I can really control is the character that I'm playing. So I try to look for characters that are interesting and engaging and different than what I've done before and hopefully it becomes a good movie.
I enjoy doing everything, comedy and drama. I just look for the characters really and what they offer.
What always leads me in terms of my movies are characters.
I've played a lot of really smarmy people in film, and it can be real fun, don't get me wrong. But it can be characters I'm not as excited to explore.
I think you can always find interesting, complex and fascinating characters to play in different kinds of movies. It's in your hands.
The stories that I like to tell and the movies I like are always grounded in the emotional arc of the characters.
