It's No Fun For An Actor To

It's True In The Beginning I Started Playing Villains, And I Think That's Pretty Clear, Because If You Don't Conventionally Look A Certain Way And You've Got A Certain Kind Of Presence When You're Young, Then What's Available To You Is Character Roles, And The Best Character Roles When You're Young Tend To Be Villains.

In Films You Do A Scene, You Play Around With It And Unless You're Doing A Lot Of Reshooting, Which No One Has The Luxury To Do, You Deal With The Problem For A Day And Then You Move On. On Some Level, It Never Allows You To Go Very Deep Into What Performing Is About.

Sometimes I Say I Feel More Like A Dancer Than An Actor, Because There Are Things Implied About Being An Actor That I Don't Really Like. I Feel More Comfortable With The Word 'performer'. I Like Being The Thing. I Like Being The Doer. There's A Factualness To It. And Then Certain Resonances Happen Out Of How You Apply Yourself Physically.

I Think On Some Level, You Do Your Best Things When You're A Little Off-balance, A Little Scared. You've Got To Work From Mystery, From Wonder, From Not Knowing.

I Want To Work With People Who Are Good At What They Do, And People Who Are Passionate.
