“This profession is a lifestyle – I do it everyday. A lot of the prep is already in place when I take on a role – it's like buying new shoes; you put them on and lace them up, or zip them up, or not – that is kind of how you build a character. Basically, what I do for a living is make my fantasy world seem so real, that even I believe it.”
