I think all actors are supposed to be character actors.

I know people who go back and check themselves, but it drives me crazy. Everybody wants to look in the mirror and see Cary Grant looking back at them, but that's just not the case.

I think first impressions are important when you pick up a script.

I love England and the historical aspect of it.

In a sense, all actors are character actors, because we're all playing different characters. But a lot of the time - and I don't know, because I'm not a writer - but writers a lot of times write second- and third-tier characters better than they write primary characters. I guess they're more fun.

You cant act for the editing. You just go in and do the scene the way you think is right.

I've tried writing. Two days later I'd go visit it and say, Jesus Christ, who wrote this crap?
