A lot of productions bring me on to play the baddie, but I'm constantly aware that my job is to do justice to the story as a whole. If the story needs something sinister, I'm here to bring that. I can detach from the protagonist in scenes, but ultimately I have to remember I am there to tell their story. I am the bad thing that happened to them. And that's how I view my work. I can go to the dark places because I'm serving the story.
