I've never played a character where I've had so much fun on the physical end. I don't want to say I like it too much but it's fun having a gun on you and getting to manhandle men.
For me, I just like to be as fun as possible, but I do like to bring a lot to a character. Given the script or the show, I know my boundaries, limits, and how far I can go with it.
I used to be under the impression that if a role wasn't difficult, then there was nothing happening. Then a director said to me: 'Ken, you've got to realise, acting can be fun, too.'
I want to have fun. I'm not interested in being a serious actor, because I think it's boring, and I think we've got plenty of them.
The further away you can get away from yourself as an actor, the more fun you have.
I have a lot of fun playing quote unquote villains because I think the bad guys get to have more fun, right?
It's definitely more fun playing a bad guy. It feels a lot better than playing one of the good guys.
I definitely like to play characters that don't fit any kind of mold; that are slightly offbeat, because it's more fun to play.
