I'd like to say as I get older, I try to move toward more sophisticated - more complex - material, but that's just not true. As I get older and more mature - as I started to mature as an actor and an artist - I start looking for stories that are really simple... simply told, straightforward stories that don't make any pretenses about what they are, or ones that are couched in other things to give you permission to enjoy them.
To me, it's the kiss of death when you start winking at the audience as an actor. I just never liked it. I don't like it when we do monologues, looking into the character.
Some of the supporting roles that I've done as an actor, I took them because I knew that I would get to watch some of the leading guys in the movies, and also I'd get to work with them.
