Zitat des Tages von J. August Richards:
I was in fittings for the first costume even before I knew I was even going to be 'Deathlok.'
I changed my name at 14 because no one outside of my family could pronounce my first name correctly.
I've always been able to sense the relationship between two people based on how one person says the other's name!
Anyone who's trying to be there for their family and trying to take care of their children is a hero to me.
I feel that, as an actor, you're constantly working to become better, which I love, but with painting, I can fail on my own terms. There's a freedom in that, so that's why I love to paint.
I think often times on Joss Whedon's shows he can make you hate a character for a period and then love the character. He does it effortlessly.
I feel like my life experience is that of an outsider. Let me explain: my parents are from Panama, and they moved to the United States the year after I was born. They moved into an all-white neighborhood, where the previous black family had a cross burned on their lawn.
I definitely was a big comic collector as a kid.
Everything I've ever learned about acting - and I went to theater school - was about playing what the character wants and throwing yourself fully into going after what the character wants.
To steal a term from one of my Twitter followers, 'Deathlok' is the 'anti-villain.' He's on the side of the bad guys, but he obviously doesn't want to be there.
I absolutely love working with David Boreanaz, and Charisma Carpenter I completely adore - she teaches me to dance.
I love roles that don't really have a template or a paradigm and force me to create using my own imagination... that really, really turns me on.
In the 'Angel' days, all there was was a community that was like a chat room. If you were looking for feedback, you had to look for it.
Their crew for 'Arrow' is just one of the most wonderful crews that I've worked with. I know that actors say that all the time, and it sounds like trash coming out of my own mouth, but it's so true.
I really enjoy working in genre series, because you really have to create the characters.
