My hiatus timeline is so minimal, there's only a select number of projects that I can go in for.

All I can do is keep working, keep auditioning, keep talking to people - and whatever it takes to show other colors.

I can go everywhere and no one recognises me.

My choices in projects have all been character or role-based, and on a financial level, it's obvious: as an actor on a TV series, I get a wonderful paycheck, and a consistent paycheck, which doesn't always happen when you're doing theater or movies.

The only place I can go where I'm not mobbed is my house.

I think intelligence is usually sexy until it becomes irritating. After that, you're stuck.
