Roles with 'bigger parts' now offered to Simmons
Los Angeles, Feb 14
J.K. Simmons, tagged as a
character actor playing smaller roles in a variety of movies, says after
the success of 'Whiplash" he has started getting bigger ones in movies.
Simmons
played the role of Fletcher, a tough music teacher in "Whiplash" and
things changed after acting in the award winning film.
"Roles
with bigger parts are coming my way. Just in general something more
significant. I obviously don't wish to play Fletcher again, I want to
broaden the experience," Simmons said in a statement.
“It’s
great to see so many interesting and risky films being made now. With
the awards season having so many such films, it assures that there will
be place for such movies in the near future,†he added.
