The idea of exploring character relations and their development over a decade has to be appealing for any actor who cherishes his craft.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
None of the actor methods ever discussed what it would be like to play a character on film for over a decade, and what it must be like to return to a character and imagine the time off-screen, which is interesting. There's something as an actor that I enjoy about evolving characters.
Sometimes you need to put your own characteristics into the actor, and you take different things from the character that you admire - sometimes you can't see the boundaries anymore.
As an actor, I've always wanted to do characters that would help me find my connection with others and connect all of us together. You always want the energy of the character, the spirit of the person, to enter you. I've been doing this for 26 years and some of the things I've done are always with me.
The actors I admire are character actors.
During my career I've enjoyed re-invigorating and contextualizing classic characters that are relatable to contemporary audiences.
I am good when there is something central about the character. There is always a human theme I attach myself to. I am really looking for something that is moving or enlightening or something with depth as an actor. I look for these kinds of roles.
As you get older and ease your way into being a character actor you have to be comfortable with where you are in life and career, and I'm very comfortable with what I'm doing - working on projects I'm proud of.
Supporting characters add depth to a story, and great actors leave their imprint with the audience.
I have been fortunate to experience a wide range of characters. What more can an actor ask for?
In a very short period of time, actors can become kind of relevant and hot.
