I'll walk through fire to do what I do because the movie business, when it's right, is the coolest art form ever invented.

Each character represents a different color on the big palette of what this ultimate painting is going to look like, who your guy is, and just try to be as honest and simple and real as you can possibly be. The outer trappings are incidental - costumes, period, makeup - all of that is rather insignificant at the end of the day.

I, for one, am not nearly as engaged when I'm looking at something that's been completely drawn up on a computer that replaces anything that's in real time and real space. It just engages me all the less, rather than all the more.

Guys who are larger than life and theatrical and deliciously unpredictable - they're far more interesting than the good guys most of the time. They have these psychological layers that an audience can really cling on to, become fascinated with, much more so than these true-blue, one-dimensional, square-jawed good guys.

I'm just trying to make up for lost times, and I have total awareness that when the work is coming it doesn't mean it's going to continue to come, so I'm taking advantage of this phenomenal period that I'm in now, to its fullest.

A lot of people have been bent one way or the other on that. I'm not going to weigh in on that I'm happy to still be at large, I'll just put it that way.

Independent film is almost nonexistent right now, because all the distributers that used to love to put out these little art films are all out of business right now, because it costs so much to open a movie.

I think now that I'm in the autumn of my life, and I'm getting a chance of having an overview and looking at the shape of how things happen, when things happen, why things happen, I think it was fitting that I spent most of my early career doing mask work, because I just don't think I was that comfortable in my own skin.

I love to continue to challenge myself and put myself in situations that are slightly uncomfortable.
Ron Perlman
Image
I'm fully aware that things that resonate and become real hits are the exception to the rule, so much so that I've wired myself for failure.

The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don't even care about my career anymore.

I say yes to almost anything that comes my way.

I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.
Ron Perlman

I don't ever want to be comfortable with anything I'm doing.
Ron Perlman

My self-confidence didn't come from my appearance, it came from other things that I did. But certainly not my appearance.
Ron Perlman

The luxury of television is that you get more than one shot at who you think the guy is that you're playing.

Fearless people are interesting to watch.
