"I know that the work is good and they're excited over at ABC and Disney and it's getting some really good feedback. It's not just a little, insignificant kind of role. It's meaty, which is good"
About this Quote
Then comes the real tell: "not just a little, insignificant kind of role". That’s the faint burn under the upbeat tone. It hints at a career shaped by visibility without control - the public knows you, the parts may not. For an actor associated with a breakout hit (and the baggage that comes with it), "insignificant" reads like a fear he's been quietly negotiating: being offered versions of the same accessory character, the handsome add-on, the vibe. So he reaches for the industry’s sacred adjective: "meaty". It’s not just about screen time; it’s about agency. "Meaty" promises interiority, choices, complications - the stuff that gives an actor leverage and a future beyond being remembered.
The language is also calibrated for the press cycle. He’s boosting the project without spoiling it, praising the bosses without sounding like he’s reading a memo, and signaling to casting directors that he’s hungry for substance. It’s optimism with a résumé underneath: please take me seriously, and I can prove you right.
