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.
I have a lot of fun playing quote unquote villains because I think the bad guys get to have more fun, right?
The further away you can get away from yourself as an actor, the more fun you have.
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.
