Getting typecast is a dangerous thing to do.
I am conscious about not getting typecast, but obviously I have to keep picking up great roles so that I don't get typecast.
Substances like LSD, which give away a secret about the nature of the social game - the human game and what underlies it - are potentially dangerous, of course, like any good thing is. Electricity is dangerous, fire is dangerous, cars are dangerous, planes are dangerous, but not so dangerous as driving on the freeway. The only way to handle danger is to face it. If you start getting frightened of it, then you make it worse. Because you project onto it all kinds of bogeys and threats which don't exist in it at all.
Style is the answer to everything. A fresh way to approach a dull or dangerous thing. To do a dull thing with style is preferable to doing a dangerous thing without it. To do a dangerous thing with style is what I call art.
People ask me if I'm afraid of getting typecast, but you can't be afraid of that. It's really not up to you. I'm getting other parts that aren't vampires.
One thing more dangerous than getting between a grizzly sow and her cub is getting between a businessman and a dollar bill.
I am not scared of getting typecast.
I am tired of getting typecast.
I don't really worry about being typecast much. I mean, everyone in Hollywood is typecast to a degree.
I do try and stay away from the stereotype and getting typecast.
As long as I keep getting cast, I don't care if it's typecast.
I don't mind getting typecast as long as it is not overpowering me as an actor.
Personally, I think getting obsessed with yourself is the most dangerous thing.
I was not only typecast as a Russian, but I was typecast as Yakov Smirnoff. This is understandable, and I was very happy to get the roles, but it would be nice to be in a movie where I could be someone else.
If you turn down work because you are frightened of getting typecast, you'll never do anything good.
I'm used to getting up at 7, getting breakfast, getting the kids off to school, and doing the mommy thing and the wife thing and the daughter thing.
I haven't had a problem with being typecast, but if I was only getting one type of role, I wouldn't mind. What I'm worried about is not working.
