Cast Quotes

I get along very well with the cast of '30 Rock.' I guess I bring a certain quirkiness to the show as well. I'm just thankful they keep asking me. I didn't think I was going to be asked back so every time they say, 'We want you back,' I'm screaming. I'm jumping up and down and screaming.
Sherri Shepherd

Time, Thankful, Rock

Idris Elba

Character, Him, Why

I was cast in 'Thor' and I'm cast as a Nordic god. If you know anything about the Nords, they don't look like me but there you go. I think that's a sign of the times for the future. I think we will see multi-level casting. I think we will see that, and I think that's good.
Idris Elba

Good, God, Future

Ursula K. Le Guin

Someone, Pretty, Weird

I cast unusual people in my movies.

Writing, Sense, Playing
