I don't choose characters according to looks. I'm comfortable doing both glamorous and non-glamorous roles.

Shweta Menon

I don't want to play high schoolers anymore. I guess I don't feel that way. I just want to play characters who are really good.

Nat Wolff

I play characters that allow me to do lot more than just be a glamorous heroine.

Lara Dutta

I tend to play strong characters and people just assume that I would want to play romantic comedies, which I would love to do, but there are other women that do it so great and they maybe couldn't do what I do, play the kind of characters that I play.

Carrie-Anne Moss

I was doing well for myself and wanted to play different roles and not just be happy portraying glamorous characters.

Payal Rohatgi

Even while I'm really interested in playing female characters that are varied and interesting and dynamic, I'm not of the mind that you always want to play strong female characters. I think I just want to play characters that are interesting, and not all people are 'strong.'

Tessa Thompson

I was doubtful whether I can play overly glamorous characters, as I am not slim. But, I was amazed at the kind of fame that came my way in Tollywood.

Shamna Kasim

I just want to work with good filmmakers and do good projects that mean something to me and play interesting characters. That's really it.

Dylan O'Brien

I find it really frustrating when people go, "I want to be famous and glamorous like you." It's hard for me not to have a bad thought when someone says that to me, since if there's anything this business is not, is glamorous. It's only glamorous for maybe five minutes every now and then.

Zoe Saldana

Usually, I like to play sophisticated-looking characters. I want to do 'Godfather'-like characters. Given my voice and style, such characters will be apt for me.

Jagapathi Babu

Then, girls have to deal with a degree of unfair scrutiny about their life outside sports. If we have good hair or look good, we are called glamorous and it is presumed that we are not focused on sports. Nowadays, even the sportsmen are glamorous, good-looking, but they never face such scrutiny.

Jwala Gutta

I want to tell good stories, real stories with a message and I want to play meaty characters that drive the story.

Tripti Dimri

I never get the tall, blonde, glamorous roles because I'm not tall, blonde and glamorous. I'm more the wee, disturbing characters because of the way I look or sound.

Shirley Henderson

If you're looking at my other major science fiction roles - the Doctor on 'Star Trek' and certainly Woolsey on 'Stargate' - I often play characters that might be good theorists and good thinkers, but you wouldn't call either of them very macho characters.

Robert Picardo

I want to play some really good, interesting, crazy characters. I want to take some chances. I want to take risks. I want to have fun and just keep working. That's all I really care about.
