It's about pursuing it rather than waiting to see what comes along. That's partly because I found myself getting typecast, as everyone does unless they pursue roles that are very different from what they've done before. ↗

It's the actors who are prepared to make fools of themselves who are usually the ones who come to mean something to the audience. ↗
