As far as characters in fiction that I really admire - it's pretty strong to say you would wish that you had created another character - but I'll throw out Will Graham, the protagonist in 'Red Dragon,' a book I've read several times.
We're seldom drawn to a character we admire; only to a personality we like.
I recently got into 'Scandal.' I'm obsessed. It's so good. I want to know Olivia Pope. I want to dress like her; I want to be friends with her. I wish she were real!
I love the role of Ripley.
I'm a strange kind of author - I like assignments. I wasn't clever enough to invent an iconic figure like Salander, but she's my kind of girl.
I always had a soft spot for Sherlock Holmes and used to imagine helping him out.
Usually viewers are attached to a character or that character's personality. But, in my case, I have been exceptionally lucky as I have been accepted as Shweta.
I liked Augustus Waters. I really, really really liked him. I liked the way his story ended with someone else. I liked his voice. I liked that he took existentially-fraught free throws.
