To go from playing Jack Startz in 'Behind the Candelabra' to playing JFK in the same year, I have now operated at the far ends of my range as an actor.
The point in me playing with Prince was to let a lot of people know that I can play trap. I don't think people know that.
I played trumpet in school once because I joined band because a cute boy played trumpet too. And I was really bad at trumpet.
I wasn't a competitor. I would play outside with my friends, but not really anything like ballet or soccer. I tried to play soccer, and it went badly.
When my mind plays tricks on me I can deal. But when my mind plays tricks on my mind I can not tell what's real
I played golf competitively as a teenager. I actually took a year off after high school and just played golf and went to a university in France for maybe a month and dropped out.
It was actually a relief for me to play an actor who was scared, who didn't know where everything was, who didn't know what buttons to push, and for me to be able to play all that.

When it comes down to it, I always played hard for my teammates and I played hard for my coaches no matter who it was, ownership.
If I could play any superhero... my favorite superhero is Spider-Man. Andrew Garfield is wonderful at doing it to the point that I don't think I should play it.
I play with a lot of guys who say they're a five handicap, and they shoot 110. And then you play with guys who say they are a 20 and they shoot 75.

I think when you play 'Psychonauts,' you are kind of playing inside of my head.
I'm aware of my old plays and occasionally think about them, but I'm much more anxious about finding the next play.
I like to think I play rugby as it should be played - there are no yellow or red cards in my collection - but I cannot say I'm an angel.
I really enjoyed playing Freddie Cork. People are always scared to approach me because of the character I played in 'Brotherhood.' The writing was very smart.

I feel like I'm playing more of a role walking down the red carpet than when I'm playing an ordinary woman covered in sweat.
Sometimes there's one person in the audience laughing hysterically, and it's so much fun. You end up playing the entire play to them.
Kids don't plan to play. They don't go: 'Barbie, Ken, you ready to play? It's gonna be a three-act.'
