I want good and different parts, different from what I've done.
I want as much as I can to try and explore different roles and different characters; that's important to me to get involved in as many different parts as I can.
Everyone experiences different parts of themselves at different times, these different parts of themselves that come out in different settings.
Different parts of Ireland have different alliances, because you have little pockets where counties are good at hurling, and different counties are good at football.
I don't work on poems and essays at once. They walk on different legs, speak with different tongues, draw from different parts of the psyche. Their paces are also different.
All I'm being offered now are parts that are authority figures. I've done that. And that's not what I want. I want something different.
If there's any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's OK to be different, that it's good to be different, that we should question ourselves before we pass judgment on someone who looks different, behaves different, talks different, is a different color.
We have done 'Talvar' in three different parts, recreating three different scenarios. And so, it was very interesting for me as a performer to be a part of this film.
I'm just naturally gravitating towards different things. As you mature, different subject matters. And as you're older, you can't play as many parts, or you shouldn't be playing the parts that you used to play. But also there's the opportunity to play parts that you couldn't have.
I want to create films that will speak to different parts of our hearts and brains, stories told from a different angle.
I think there are two sides of the coin. On one hand, it can be challenging to access different parts of yourself, and you kind of have to put yourself back into reality when you're done with the job. But I think it's also really cool to have the ability to try on being different people and to explore some parts of yourself because you get to know yourself better. You get to know parts of yourself that you haven't met before. I think that's something that I've been learning more recently.
I have a soft spot for those wrestlers who used to bounce around different territories, if you want to use that word, or different parts of the world.
Acting is mostly interpretive. They use different parts of you, and different sides of you, and different so-called talents.
I like acting because I get to find different parts of myself, or at least create different parts that don't already exist, and see the world through someone else's eyes.
We always had National Geographic and Astronomy magazines and Popular Mechanics lying around the house. I got interested in exploration and different parts of the world and different parts of the universe just from seeing those things around the house and the different discussions we had as a family.
I think actors are very obsessed about looking different and behaving differently, but all people need is just a different film. They don't want a different you; they want a different story.
Different people in different parts of the world can be thinking the same thoughts at the same time. It's an obsession of mine: that different people in different places are thinking the same thing but for different reasons. I try to make films which connect people.
