Well, on a personal level, I would never want to take on a character who didnโt have some redeemable qualities. Even the worst of people, such as Michael Scott in The Office [Carellโs character in the US version of the Ricky Gervais sitcom], have some decent human qualities that you can latch onto.
Steve CarellI don't ever want to take a part in order to prove that I'm capable of doing something. It's all based in doing stuff that's interesting or working with people who would be fun to work with.
