Michael Rooker Roles Quotations

I think all the roles I've done have been very passionate people who go to absolute extremes to make their points.

You know how it is, somebody will see your work and like it and remember it, then decide to make it a role in their film.

I don't approach a role by saying I'll be unsavory or unlikable.

Every time I was cast in a role, the director put a gun in my hand, so I figured I’d better learn how to use one. Then I found out I really liked it.

You forget about it, after awhile. You forget that you even have it on. It becomes part of you. You get used to it, even the teeth and the contacts, which bothered the hell out of me. It ends up being something that is part of the role, and part of the thing that you're doing. After awhile, it just feels pretty damn awesome.
