My characters are not underachievers; they aspire to great things, but they are limited by the world around them.
I think USA has a great handle on programming and content. They know their viewers and they know what works... Character driven programming!
The formation of character in young people is educationally a different task from and a prior task to, the discussion of the great, difficult ethical controversies of the day.
A character on screen that's the 'good guy' or the 'bad guy,' they're never interesting. There's got to be an internal struggle, the duality is important to find.
Conflict and character are the heart of good fiction, and good mystery has both of those in spades.
I just want to work with good filmmakers and do good projects that mean something to me and play interesting characters. That's really it.

I'm just attracted to good material and great characters and that can come in any form, whether it's television or film or a theatre piece.

There are no black and white, good or bad characters in 'Game Of Thrones,' but Joffrey was an exception. Just pure evil.
There is a little bit of me in every part I do... I'm not really good enough to completely construct an all-new character.
But Germany will always suffer, I fear, from the intensely dramatic character of the crimes of the Third Reich.
By action and reaction do we become strong or weak, according to the character of our thoughts and mental states. Fear is the deadly nightshade of the mind.
We're not used to seeing any videogames character express sentiments like fear, uncertainty or remorse.
My goal was just to work regularly. I didn't ever expect to be rich or famous. I wanted to be a working character actor.
Faith is the foundation upon which a godlike character is built. It is a prerequisite for all other virtues.
The funny thing is that I feel close to all my characters. Deep, deep inside them all.
I've always enjoyed watching characters that aren't aware that they're doing anything funny. And I think that inherently makes them funnier.
In order for comedy to be funny you have to play the truth of the moment. But if you're not being completely truthful to the basis of the character, its not going to be funny.
