“I always cast people with a sense of humor because people that are super serious don't understand when I ask them to eat a booger it's not necessarily about that. It's about something more. It's about inviting a little bit of absurdity into the process and humanity into the process.

“The casting is the most important thing. If you cast a picture really well a lot of things take care of themselves. You get actors that like to give a lot to the role and who appreciate the role on the same level that you do. If you miscast it, you're working an uphill battle a little bit and maybe you can come out okay but you can't always come out great.” IfsGivingWellsLittlesImportantCareActorsBitsLevelsRolesBattleLittle BitAppreciateOkayImportant ThingsCastsTake CareCastingUphill Battles Author:Clint Eastwood
“It's kind of bizarre, isn't it? Having that kind of attention.

“I got a phone call from George Miller [the director] asking me to play this role. We sat down and he showed me on his computer a documentary-type montage sequence of real penguins swimming, in an Esther Williams synchronized sort of way, and doing things I have never seen them do. Then he explained his vision of the film, asked me to read the script and to voice the character. I was cast a little bit later, and he let me do the singing as well!” WayWellsLittlesRealPlayCharacterFilmBitsVoiceVisionRolesTypeDirectorsComputerLittle BitSingingLet MeAskingDown AndScriptsCastsPhonesSatSwimmingDocumentariesSequencePhone CallsPenguinsEsther Author:Brittany Murphy
“Essentially, the scripts are not that different. Let's say, in literary terms, it's the difference between writing horizontally and writing vertically. In live television, you wrote much more vertically. You had to probe people because you didn't have money or sets or any of the physical dimensions that film will allow you. So you generally probed people a little bit more. Film writing is much more horizontal. You can insert anything you want: meadows, battlefields, the Taj Mahal, a cast of thousands. But essentially, writing a story is writing a story.” PeopleWantWritingLittlesDifferentStoriesFilmBitsTermDifferencesTelevisionLittle BitScriptsCastsDimensionsWant MeBattlefieldsMeadowsYou Want MeInsertHorizontalTaj MahalMahalLive TelevisionFilm WritingLiterary Terms Author:Rod Serling
“Acting is fun. I enjoy it, but there is just not many opportunities to do it on a serious level.

“So much of the time I'm cast as an asshole or a douchebag, or that kind of thing. I'd like to go back to just playing a guy with a good heart. Usually so much of my stuff is ulterior motives or a dark thing to it. Maybe that's what other people see in me, but I feel like I have a warm side, too, humor and fun.
