I want to write my own stuff, and, you know, it would be nice to put myself in it. But I would like to hope that there are going to be better roles offered as well and that I don’t need to do everything. You know, like, I appreciate my career being somewhat DIY, but it would be nice to get some help Picture Quote #1

I like acting when I can pick my own roles, and I do. It’s fun. I like being creative, and it’s a creative process Picture Quote #1

I started out as a writer and a director. I started acting because I wanted to know how to relate to the actors. When people ask me what I do, I don’t really say that I’m an actor, because actors often wait for someone to give them roles Picture Quote #1

Audiences like me doing action and comedy. I am a jovial person and have been so from childhood. I like to laugh my way through my work, and that attitude reflects in my roles. Even women hate me doing rona-dhona roles. So I don’t do emotional films Picture Quote #1

I would switch roles with Madonna for a day. Or if Audrey Hepburn was still alive, Audrey Hepburn. I love Audrey Hepburn. She’s one of my idols, also Picture Quote #1

My roles in comedies from ‘Austin Powers’ to ‘Tommy Boy’ to ‘Wayne’s World,’ were sort of comedic ‘straight man’ parts. My character on ‘Parks and Recreation’ is the comic relief in a comedy. To play a character that appears strictly for laughs is sort of new for me and really fun Picture Quote #1

I think transwomen, and transpeople in general, show everyone that you can define what it means to be a man or woman on your own terms. A lot of what feminism is about is moving outside of roles and moving outside of expectations of who and what you’re supposed to be to live a more authentic life Picture Quote #1

I wake up and play a different person every day. Playing all these different characters and trying to figure out who your true authentic self is at the core of that as you’re playing all these different roles, and man, that self-awareness starts to come into effect. And you start to see who you really are Picture Quote #1

You gotta understand, there weren’t a whole lot of roles for Hispanics in the Eighties, so comedy was really the way I could really feed myself and eventually feed my family. I was an actor who learned to be a comic, and it’s cool to come back and get back into acting - move forward in the direction I started out to do in the beginning Picture Quote #1

One of the author’s most ancient roles is to call the community to account for its hypocrisies and bad faith Picture Quote #1

I just have so much fun playing bad girl roles. Getting to say things that in life you would never ordinarily say, there’s something really liberating about that. It’s fun Picture Quote #1

I do keep getting these bad girl roles. The funny thing is that, honestly, I don’t think I’m believable as these aristocratic mean girls. But I do love playing them Picture Quote #1

The very first things that I did, even in theater, were bad guys. They are meaty roles for the most part. With the bad guy you have more freedom to experiment and go further out than with a good guy Picture Quote #1

People say, How come you play bad guys so much? And I say, Well, have you seen many Asian good-guy roles? Picture Quote #1

Religion can have psychological and social roles, but in terms of really explaining how things work, science works differently. Science is based on material elements at the core Picture Quote #1

I am a friend when I need to be a friend, a father when I need to be a father, a musician when music calls. I switch roles accordingly Picture Quote #1

I love challenging films, really. I’d prefer to do some gritty, challenging roles. That would be awesome and really fun Picture Quote #1

I only take on roles that I’m passionate about. Life is too short to do things that you’re not happy with Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I base the roles I choose depending on the characters. That’s just how I’m gonna run my career. So if it’s a good role I’m gonna take it whether it be fantasy, or whether it be realistic or fiction, anything Picture Quote #1

I want to play roles that I’m proud of, that I feel a certain integrity about, and I want to continue to be truthful in the work that I do Picture Quote #1

Being an actor is a good way to earn a living. And to meet fabulous people. It’s great to live very comfortably. I’ve been lucky, I’ve had a lot of fun with great roles, but it is true that if I were extremely rich, I would stop and I would go to play football on a beach in the Caribbean with my children Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’m the best-looking actress around. I’m not Katrina Kaif; she is stunningly beautiful. There are some roles that might need a beautiful girl, and there would be a doubt in a director’s mind whether he should cast me. But that perception will change with time. I’d like to believe actresses look better with experience Picture Quote #1

I’ve become really good at turning down the boring, pretty girl roles, the trophy wife, supermodel, beautiful girlfriend roles. I mean, playing somebody who’s perfect holds no allure for me, whatsoever. It’s just boring Picture Quote #1

Every actress has to face the facts there are younger, more beautiful girls right behind you. Once you’ve gone beyond the vanity of the business, you’ll take on the tough roles Picture Quote #1
