More from Benjamin Bratt
Your job as an actor is to stay employed.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt There’s no gray area in law enforcement. Evil exists in the world and it must be dealt with. And those on the side of good can feel righteous in their approach to eliminating evil. There’s no ambiguity there.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I have always been of the mind that good work is good work, whether performed on stage, on television or in film and, like any reasonable actor, I keep my options open.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I wasn’t terribly aware of Catwoman. She was a DC comics character and as a kid, I wasn’t terribly fond of the DC comics characters. I was a Marvel boy.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I believe there’s a huge distinction between un macho and a real man. I don’t think you have to be one to be another.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I’ve made a career over the last seventeen years of mostly playing men in uniform, especially cops. The one thing for an actor that is death, is if you’re bored. The boredom will show in your work.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt As an audience member, I like watching Rupert as an actor when he’s most playful. I think Rupert is really adept at comedy; I think that’s where his strength lies.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt So there was an inherent challenge in trying to keep it fresh, because it’s something that I’m familiar with, but the real draw for me was at long last to work with Halle.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I count it as a major victory to not only be on a series that’s had a full season run, but to actually be on one that’s gotten picked up for a second season.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I come from a large family so you can count on the fact that I’m going to have more kids.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt Part of my aspiration as a film actor is to bring subtlety to everything I do – honesty but subtlety.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I’ve been in scenarios as an actor where you have to manufacture an emotion that’s not really there, but it wasn’t hard with Halle because she’s a great person and very beautiful, so it ain’t a tough job at the end of the day.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt No matter what your native tongue is, no matter what part of the world you’re from, if your native tongue is distorted with an accent, somehow that’s always funny.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt The whole thing about acting, the draw for me, is the opportunity to do things you don’t get to do in real life.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt As far as I know, you only get one shot at this life. It only goes round once and time is precious. When I’m not working, you’d better spend that time with someone important.
Benjamin BrattBenjamin Bratt I think all actors are on the constant search for a real challenge just to keep things interesting.

More on agenda
Democrats’ attack on the Republican majority leader is nothing but a coordinated agenda to stop an effective leader from accomplishing the people’s business.
Bill ShusterBill Shuster We in the press like to say we’re honest brokers of information, and it’s just not true. The press does have an agenda.
Bernard GoldbergBernard Goldberg There are plenty of other groups, and some of them are quite good at what they do, but they also have an agenda of non-theism, but we don’t have, you might say, a theology. We just have a commitment to the Constitution.
Barry W. LynnBarry W. Lynn This man [Barack Obama] does not have the interests of our country. That’s not his agenda. His agenda is to bring us down to a third-world country.
Ted CruzTed Cruz It’s also easy to look at them as a metaphor for a shadow organization that says one thing and has a completely different agenda on their mind, and anybody who gets in their way, they just get rid of them. Does that sound familiar?
Alan BallAlan Ball Satan, the enemy is using people to further his agenda to destroy the Kingdom of God and as many souls as he can.
Alan ChambersAlan Chambers Kids are more genuine. When they come up and want to talk to you, they don’t have an agenda. It’s more endearing and less piercing to your aura.
Alan CummingAlan Cumming But in the right-wing media, they do have a right-wing bias. And they also have an agenda. So their agenda is: we’re an adjunct of the Republican Party, and we’re going push that agenda every day, and, as you say, brand these stories that help further the right-wing cause.
