I look for characters who are emotionally driven.
Where were they when the Russians went down?
I've got to put my kids through school. And I like the security of working every day, which is what television is about.
My objective was to have as varied a selection of roles as possible. It probably did hurt my career.
People want to typecast you; it's human nature.
I enjoy directing, but I really like acting more. The idea of controlling the whole thing is not something that really appeals to me as much as being able to just control the world of the character that I'm dealing with.
