Ron PerlmanThe luxury of television is that you get more than one shot at who you think the guy is that you're playing.
Ron PerlmanThe approach to acting is always the same, you try to figure who the guy is and then you try to transition your way into his way of thinking and moving through the world.

Ron PerlmanI like doing voiceover work. I just like it in general, because you're constantly working on a very first-instinct level. You show up, you get in front of the microphone, you look at the lines, you say the lines, and then you move on. You work on a really primal level, is what I'm saying. You don't have to shave. You don't even have to wear pants. But, uh, that wasn't your question.
