Sometimes you choose the wrong actor, he could be the best actor ever, but hes not cast in the right part then it doesnt work.
The thing is, playing with us, whoever was the left winger had to come to play every night because that's the way it was. Charlie came in and he just fit that role - big and strong around the net.
I think everybody understands the fact that the right person will be cast for the role. So it's not theirs really to lose; they're just trying to find the right person.
When I auditioned for 'Fargo,' there was something about it that I was hungry for because of how right it felt for me.
I'm not a snob. If I feel like there's a star that's the best person for that role, then that's who I get.
It was a tremendous stroke of good luck that the show got Michael C. Hall to play the part. Everyone I've talked to thinks Michael is a perfect 'Dexter,' which never happens.
Casting the right actor for the right part is some unspoken thing between the two of you to communicate.
The biggest compliment I think an actor can get is I can't imagine anyone else in the role.
There are always discussions about casting stars in lead roles in theater - especially when you're working with commercial producers - and it's not something I'm against, not at all. But any casting has to be right for the project.
