Well, the only way I can get a leading-man role is if I write it.

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.

It would drive me crazy if I picked roles with the goal of being a leading man. You never know what you're getting into when you sign onto a project, and more times than not, the characters that are close to the leading man are more interesting and more fun to play.

I've never considered myself a leading man, don't look like one, don't want to be one.

I would never think of myself as a role model.

Making the choice to cast someone in a lead role is a big one. You don't want to squander your opportunity.

I'm not a conventional leading man at all and have no wish to be.

I love to be the lead, but you can't always be the lead.
