I enjoy playing real human beings after playing a lot of larger than life characters. I love playing true to life characters and that is what I intend to do for the majority of my career.

Michael Jai White

I enjoy playing a quintessential antihero. There's something therapeutic about playing such characters. I know it sounds corny but I feel like I learn about myself when I play that characters.

Vin Diesel

I choose grey characters, as I enjoy playing a human character. I don't shy away from showing the shortcomings of my characters.

I really enjoy playing intelligent characters. I'm more interested in that than just emotional kind of Mum characters.

Miranda Otto

Whether it's someone struggling with mental illness, someone struggling with poverty or struggling with their own limitations in their social behaviors, for some reason, I'm drawn to characters like that.

Gbenga Akinnagbe

I'm always happiest trying new instruments - and honestly enjoy playing, say, the glockenspiel with Radiohead as much as I do the guitar. I think regular touring has forced me to play the guitar more than anything else, which is why I'm probably most confident playing that. And whist I'd be lost if I couldn't play it too, I dislike the totemic worship of the thing... magazines, collectors, and so on. I enjoy struggling with instruments I can't really play.

Jonny Greenwood

I'm not particularly interested in playing characters that think the way I do.

Cate Blanchett

Playing big, heroic characters with heart is always a lot of fun. I enjoy making movies like that, and a lot of people love to live vicariously through those characters.

Dwayne Johnson

I enjoy playing characters where the silence is loud.

Gary Oldman

The role that I play as a lone striker, I enjoy it and particularly playing with great players.

Jermain Defoe

I love and enjoy playing characters with a comic streak.

Saswata Chatterjee

Though I enjoy playing historical characters, it is very taxing.

Puneet Issar

I don't particularly like talking about it much, but after a year of struggling, when you start playing better, you have a much better perspective on the game.

Tommy Fleetwood

I'm mostly interested in characters and how they manifest themselves in their relationships. I'm delighted that people relate to the characters in 'Bojack,' and hopefully they will too to the characters in 'Undone.' If they understand themselves or feel seen in a new way, I think that's a wonderful thing.

Raphael Bob-Waksberg

Before there was any talk of a movie, people would sometimes ask me what actors I would imagine playing these characters. And the only thing I could ever say is: I have such a clear idea of these characters that they'd have to play themselves.
