I've played a lot of younger, more coming-of-age roles as well as roles that aren't such an imposing physical presence.
For the beginning of my career, I was always playing people younger than me.
I am constantly playing younger. I have a baby face. I'm only five-foot-one, so I am used to playing younger. I love it.
There's a joke in my family that I'm going to make a career out of playing other people's younger selves.
I can play younger. It's better to be playing younger because you've got that experience, and it's hard to play older when you're younger.
It's true that old actors don't die, their parts get smaller. You're less likely to get the part, many parts, if you're playing people your age as opposed to people who are younger. There are fewer parts around.
When you're younger they always try to get you to do every ninny role that's going.
It hasn't been until the last couple years that I've started playing close to my age. But it's fun playing the younger roles because it takes you back to the teen years.
