“MY CHARACTER WOULD NEVER DO THAT”
🙅 Think your character would never do that? Think again.
🎭 Every great performance lives in contradiction. When you decide what your character would NEVER do or what they ALWAYS do, you stop discovering what they MIGHT do.
💥 People are messy, complex, and full of opposites. The most interesting choices often live in those contradictions where confidence cracks, where fear lashes out, and where control collapses.
🔥 Don’t protect your characters. They don’t need safety, they need your truth. Play the moment, play the need, play the stakes, and let the audience build the character through your honesty.
