I don`t like kick-ass stereotypical roles. I already turn a lot down, even when they promise me a lot of money. I really want to do something in Europe. With a small movie, it can be an interesting challenge. But I have to get the right project. I don`t t...
Zhang Ziyi
[on her ethnic background] Well, I`m Italian, but my family isn`t stereotypical. I mean, I only have one sister and we don`t yell or throw pasta at each other. My mother doesn`t even have a secret spaghetti sauce recipe.
Jennifer Esposito

Isla Fisher
What I think happens today is that a lot of filmmakers look at other films that are retro pieces, like L.A. Confidential, and say, oh, that`s period. We didn`t want to do the stereotypical stuff.
Ted Demme
Well not really to get attention, but to entertain, but you know to show some elements of rural life as well, it kind of blended all in, its kind of like a mockery in a sense, kind of stab back at people that have those stereotypical ideas of the south.
Bubba Sparxxx
They wanted to make her less rural, less of a cartoon. Not that Southern woman are cartoonish - they`re the strongest women in this country, but with Val they wanted to take the stereotypical things out.

Lenny Kravitz
I`ve always been into films. I`ve been offered lots of films but they`ve always been these very stereotypical roles. They wanted me to play some gangster or street guy, or pimp, drug addict.
Lenny Kravitz
David [Wain] and I had been writing a spoof of romantic comedies, and we started thinking about this stereotypical character. We started imagining an entire movie about him.
Michael Showalter
A lot of times I watch TV and I watch film and there`s so many things I`d love to talk about that I feel don`t get the opportunity to be shown. Sometimes things become very stereotypical and one-sided, and I feel like it`s such a colorful world.
