I've always played characters that were younger than myself.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I have always played someone like 10 years younger. When I was 23 or 24, I was playing 15 opposite Evan Rachel Wood in a movie called 'Pretty Persuasion.' She was 16 and nobody in a million years would have thought I was that much older than her.
You never play age, you play character.
All of my main characters have been under 30.
I'd like to play characters who are older - I don't want to be playing 14-year-olds too much longer.
I think every major character I've played was originally for an older woman. I have no idea what that says. I guess I'm mature for my age.
I have been really lucky to play roles younger than myself for most of my career.
Character roles definitely age better than your ingenues. You don't get to keep doing that.
I've always played way older than my age. It's the experience behind my eyes or something.
I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.
I played old men back in drama school. It's just now that I'm drawing level with the age of the characters I play, but I'm fine with that, and I've certainly never envied people who became hugely famous when they were young.
