But there's a difference between privacy and secrecy, and I'm not a secretive person.
'Serious acting' is the kind of acting that I don't ever respond to.
If one story becomes too hot, then you can't forget it. As an actor, you want to remain fluid.
I do sometimes play characters that are a bit ambiguous. You've got to be brave about that sort of stuff. I like the sense of people not feeling too secure, not immediately knowing what they have in front of them.
The kind of actors I admire move through different characters and genres.
Audiences like to be challenged and to be actively involved and try to guess an outcome.
