All the movies where I play nice guys don't seem to do very well.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You know, I don't really think you have to play nice guys.
I get cast a lot of times in movies with nice people for some reason - because I have a nice face or something.
Sometimes I do movies that aren't any good, or sometimes I might not be any good in them, or sometimes they don't do very well.
If a film doesn't play, people aren't going to be that nice.
I often played nice guys when I was younger, and it's nice to be able to explore the darker side.
If we based everything in Hollywood on who was a nice guy, holy moly, we would have no movies. No actors would work. This is not an industry that is ruled by kindness and generosity.
The very first things that I did, even in theater, were bad guys. They are meaty roles for the most part. With the bad guy you have more freedom to experiment and go further out than with a good guy.
Every time you play a bad girl or guy in a movie, you really come from a place of pain.
What are movies for if not to have the good guys triumph over the bad ones?
I haven't played a lot of nice guys.
