Yael Grobglas Quotes

I don't want to pigeonhole myself in one character or genre. I want to challenge myself as much as I can.

When I was starting out, I always wanted to be able to do everything - comedy and drama and action, and everything in between. Film is so diverse, and it's fun to be able to take advantage of all of it.

I try to be fussy about the parts I play. I think that's quite prudent, it means you're stretching different muscles, and you're scaring yourself by doing something which is out of your comfort zone.

I love changing my roles. I think the most important thing that I can do for myself is to keep changing the genres, the periods, the characters themselves.

I want to do a lot of different characters - definitely not always the same kind of character. I love that life provides so many choices, and I want to be able to experience that.

The fun for me is to mix it all up. I would actually like to do something as far away from what I've just done, just for my own personal joy and growth, for what I want to do.

I never wanted to stay in one genre; I never wanted to be pigeon-holed or defined as the actor who only worked in one genre. I want to be able to work in all different genres. For me it's fun, and that's how I grow as an actor.

I've always wanted to do non-comedies. I've always done dramas, comedies, music, and I always like to bop around and do different things.

It's good for me to be involved in different things.

I like being thrown out of my comfort zone.

I love a challenge. So when I did 'Friday,' I didn't want to do another comedy back-to-back. With 'Set It Off,' that was a little different from 'The Negotiator' and 'The Italian Job.' So for me, it's all about challenge. It's all about challenge and about just learning.

I never wanted to limit myself to just impressions. I wanted to branch out and develop other parts of my game.

I always wanted, and still aspire, to be something more than just one thing, just one performance.

People like 'Crank,' some people like 'Redemption.' I'm just happy to do things that satiate a different part of me, that test me a little bit.

It's good for me to do things outside my comfort zone and push myself.

I learned to always take on things I'd never done before.

The biggest thing about me, as an actor, is I'm never a finished product, you know? I always want to try something or be in a new genre because, one, it's much more fun to do that because you're not doing the same thing over and over.

What's fun for me is to try new things and push myself and not get stuck in one genre or another, or stuck with one character or another.

I never like to be the same, whether it be comedy or drama, funny or serious.
