Part of the reason of being an actor is you like playing other people's lives and exploring all the psychologies in that and the emotions.

I think actors are getting so much more power these days, but I'm not. I stay very much away from the decisions, the way in which things are orchestrated, what's been changed. I just try to stay completely in the role as the actor and as the character.
