What's taken out of the image that you see are the people around waving the stick at the tiger or poking on it or whatever. And all you see is the growling animal or whatever it is.

But a part of that is because somebody's coming around and hitting on it or whatever to make it get active. And that's where you think, OK, well, this isn't really news. It's not even real. It's not what would be happening if this effect wasn't taking place. Yeah.

And that's where I thought, OK, you know, the sort of wise thing to do is to just sort of like maintain one's perspective and try to remove yourself a little bit. It doesn't which is what I would like to do. I think there's this sense that that like if you see someone's picture all the time, they must want you to be seeing. Right. Right. Which is not the case at all for me. I'm self-conscious.

I don't really want you to be seeing that at all. any reason for it as an actor it's no good for you because I don't really want people if they watch a movie to be like that's not him because I saw him yesterday at lunch and I know he's who he really is it gets in the way of you being able to create like the illusion it's

Really hard work to create the illusion that this person, like the character in The Accountant 2, for example, is a real person in a real circumstance. And in order to get the audience to care about it, to laugh, to find it exciting and empathize with the character, they have to suspend disbelief. That's harder if you're constantly being shown something else. So I think it gets in the way.

It makes it harder to be an actor. And it's also just – It's also not good for you. People start to resent you if they see you too much, no matter whether or not you're trying to be seen.

And nonetheless, like I remember 20 years ago going through an experience where I was like, it feels to the world like I'm trying to shove myself in their face. Ah.
