It’s fun to do voiceover work, although you still have to act. But it doesn’t involve memorizing lines, and you don’t have to dress up.  (Stephen Root Quotes) You have to remind casting directors out here that you don’t just do one thing. There’s a lot of people who do just one thing.  (Stephen Root Quotes) In order for comedy to be funny you have to play the truth of the moment. But if you’re not being completely truthful to the basis of the character, its not going to be funny.  (Stephen Root Quotes) My whole career, I’ve tried to bounce back and forth between everything, and not get typed out. I’ve done a pretty good job of not getting typed.  (Stephen Root Quotes) I don’t aspire to direct like many actors.

They go in and go to work every day. You’re coming in, and it’s a brand-new environment, so you have to get it... and then you’re gone again  (Stephen Root Quotes) When I worked with Robin Williams, now there is improv! He is just as funny as you think he is. We did at least five or six takes of every scene, improvising every scene differently. He was a riot  (Stephen Root Quotes) I would have to say News Radio is the highlight of my career.

If you know what your cues are, then you know what your reaction is going to be to them. Acting is about reacting, and if I can kind of purely react, that’s easier for me  (Stephen Root Quotes) It’s fun to do voiceover work, although you still have to act. But it doesn’t involve memorizing lines, and you don’t have to dress up  (Stephen Root Quotes) Well, I think probably when I first got in the business, I wasn’t thinking of being strictly a character actor. But I knew I wanted to be a working actor, and as the years have gone on, I just naturally evolved into that. Because, y’know, I’m not a leading guy. Never was  (Stephen Root Quotes) Researching real people and doing them, I think, is harder than anything else. You don’t want to do a caricature of them and you don’t want to do an impression. You just want to do the best you can, in terms of presenting their views and a general impression of the guy. That’s the hardest thing to do, real people  (Stephen Root Quotes) It’s easier to play a dim character, for me, because I have a natural bent for comedy. It’s not intrinsic for me to be crafty, so I would have to go outside for a source of origin. I think of myself as pretty dim  (Stephen Root Quotes) You have to remind casting directors out here that you don’t just do one thing. There’s a lot of people who do just one thing  (Stephen Root Quotes) The more you work, the more people see your work and would like to work with you, and vice versa  (Stephen Root Quotes) My whole career, I’ve tried to bounce back and forth between everything, and not get typed out. I’ve done a pretty good job of not getting typed  (Stephen Root Quotes) It’s good for you to go somewhere that you wouldn’t normally go  (Stephen Root Quotes) I don’t aspire to direct like many actors. I would aspire most likely to do some writing, but I haven’t had a chance to do that  (Stephen Root Quotes) In order for comedy to be funny you have to play the truth of the moment. But if you’re not being completely truthful to the basis of the character, its not going to be funny  (Stephen Root Quotes)
