Tim asked me to read his script. He wanted me to play another character and I didn't want to do it. Frankly, I didn't want to be the ingenue puppet because I did so many of those roles when I started acting.
They did cast me as an ingenue once, and the novelty was nice. But I said, 'There is nothing here to play!' I really like getting into the meat of a role.
I've always wanted my characters to have more dimension and realistic cores than the ingenue material often provides. It's been a challenge.
