I definitely would like to do some more dramatic roles.
I have never taken myself that seriously as an actor.
I think the way it works is that when you're casting a movie, you usually want to work with people that you believe in.
It's funny how it usually works out that I end up dying. It sort of works out, because by the time I die, I'm usually tired of working on that particular movie, so I look forward to it.
Movies I liked growing up were like Francis Ford Coppolla movies and Scorsese movies.
You can think of Hollywood as high school. TV actors are freshmen, comedy actors are maybe juniors, and dramatic actors - they're the cool seniors.
