I don't think playing a villain is my greatest talent.

Sam Waterston

I don't think of 'Macbeth' as the villain. I don't think of 'King Lear' as the villain. I don't think of 'Hamlet' as the villain. I don't think of 'Travis Bickle' as the villain.

Damien Chazelle

One of the greatest things about playing a villain is people wondering when he's going to make his comeback.

Michael McMillian

Came to the world at a time when it was in need of a villain. An asshole, that role I think I succeed in fulfilling. Dont think I ever stopped to think I was speaking to children. Everything was happening so fast, it was like I blinked, sold three million.

Eminem

I think a lot of actors will tell you that playing a villain can be more fun than playing the straight and narrow good guy.

Haley Joel Osment

Whenever you take on playing a villain, he has to cease to be a villain to you. If you judge this man by his time, he's doing very little wrong.

Colin Firth

I think a villain who starts his morning looking in the mirror, wringing his hands, and going, 'How can I be evil today?' is not an interesting villain. An interesting villain is a person who you understand on some level, I think.

Michael McKean

I think what's exciting about playing a villain - particularly a villain who's totally unapologetic about their evil intentions - is that it's not anything remotely like what you get to do in real life. You're never allowed to be evil and not feel bad about it afterwards, let alone be evil, period.

Bryce Dallas Howard

I dont know if there is anyone who wouldnt want to play some kind of superhero. I dont know if the world is getting sick of superhero movies or not, but I think you will endlessly have actors who are intrigued by the idea of playing a superhero.

Jennifer Morrison

You can't think that you're playing a villain, or you'll end up with a cartoon. You have to think about him as a person and a hero.

Tom Berenger

I'd love to play a Bond villain. Yeah, I'd love to play a Bond villain. Everyone always says this to me; they always say, 'You've got to be a Bond villain', 'We're going to make you a Bond villain...' But they've never, ever approached me, I've never had a whiff of it. I think I'd love to play a Bond villain; I'd have great fun.

Eddie Marsan

I dont hate it he thought, panting in the cold air, the iron New England dark; I dont. I dont! I dont hate it! I dont hate it!

William Faulkner

I think it would be hard to simply call Yi Rang a villain. Rather than a villain, I think he's someone who becomes very focused on something and hooked on it.

Kim Bum

To be completely honest, it's shocking to me that I keep getting the villain roles! I do not see myself as the villain and I know, growing up, I was the opposite of a villain. I would never try to be a villain to anyone - but maybe other people I grew up with feel differently about that.
