“As an actor, we spend so much putting the mask on and trying to be som...” — Russell Hornsby Quote

As an actor, we spend so much putting the mask on and trying to be someone you're not.

At the end of the day, you have to find the humanity in you in each character.

I subscribe to the slow nickel theory. You take a little bit at a time. You always make better of what you have when you don't have best.

The thing is, about a character, it's not about being right, it's about the truth. The truth comes from within, so you have to search as an artist for the truth.

For me, that is the craft of acting: literally creating something from nothing.

I was particularly happy to do a potential franchise where I was not putting on a mask or a pair of tights.

I can't close my left eye properly. I have to sleep with a little eye mask and my mouth still goes to the side when I talk, although people don't really notice.

Whenever someone says the word community, I want to reach for an oxygen mask.

I don't travel without a sleep mask or Post Its!

Some days I'll put on a face mask for 30 minutes, and then I'll wash it off in the shower.
