Because I went from the 'Daily Show' where I was a fake news guy on a fake news show, to 'Bruce Almighty' where I played a news guy, to 'Anchorman' where I played a news guy, now I'm... yeah, I tend to gravitate towards suits.
I much prefer playing the bad guys. I think they are always the most interesting characters. I liken it to painting: if you're playing the good guy, you get three colors: red, white and blue. But if you're the bad guy, you get the whole palette.
I have a new show now called 'The Bridge,' where I play a guy who's a real-life guy. My character's based on the life of a guy named Craig Bromell who was a cop for 12 years and then became head of the police association, so basically the president o...
I'm from New York, I'm 53, I have my moments when I'm a nice guy, and more frequently I have my moments where I'm a middle-aged aggravated person. For years I was always the nice guy, so in life I had to pretend to be the nice guy.
To be totally honest? I don't know if I'll keep doing more impressions. People told me I had a facility for it, and I was like, 'Okay, I'm the impression guy.' So you imagine the cast at 'SNL' is an A-Team, and you've got the explosives guy, and I'm ...
Actors will always tell you it's more fun playing bad guys. A lot of the time, it's criminals who are the people who don't care. There's something extraordinarily seductive about the guy who doesn't care, and to play that guy is terribly empowering, ...
Neil McCauley: Gimme the key! Bank Guy: What key? [Neil socks bank guy in the face, who tumbles backwards, and extracts the necessary key; the bank guy struggles in pain] Neil McCauley: Don't move! Sit there. Sit there! Let it bleed.
Nice Guy Eddie: Alright, Mr. Fucking Compassion! I will call somebody! Mr. White: Who? Nice Guy Eddie: A fucking snakecharmer! What do you think? I'll call a doctor!
If you can prove a guy did cheat, then I don't believe he belongs. I don't believe that there are any guys that did cheat, in that respect, that are in the Hall of Fame. So I think opening up the doors to guys that admittedly cheated or are proven th...
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: These guys are SEALS? Catfish De Vries: Eh. These guys ain't so tough. I fought guys plenty tougher'n them. Alan "Hippy" Carnes: Now we get to hear how you "coulda been a contender"?
Sir Guy of Gisbourne: What the devil? Robin Hood: Come now, Sir Guy. You would not kill a man for telling the truth, would you? Sir Guy of Gisbourne: If it amused me, yes!
Whatever path we take, the first step is to acknowledge the complexity of the dilemma and to accept that simplistically dividing the past into good guys and bad guys leads nowhere. Unless, of course, we are willing to admit that we usually follow the...
It's amazing that people love 'Family Guy' as much as they do. It's great.
Suddenly playing the charming bad guy was my thing.
I don't play a regular guy at all - never.
Shiny, let's be bad guys!
I'm not a party guy, and I'm not a Hollywood guy, either.
A guy should be a guy. You don't want him to be too... shiny.
I prefer to play the bad guy - it gives you more freedom as an actor.
Even the great bad guys in cinema history, they're likable.
If nice guys finish last, then great guys come in right after them.
