If you play an evil character, it’s gotta stick a little.
And if you’re a character-actor who always gets the evil role. If you play 100 evil guys. Then 100X moreso.
You get into the evil role. See the world through evil eyes and evil motivations.
And over time, It’s gotta bend your personality towards real evilness. Right?
I suppose you could google evil-character-actors. 20 years later, how many got arrested for something heinous.
What do you think?
EDIT
Put more generally : Can habits gained in one context bleed over into another context?
Yes.
Do they?
Possibly. With increasing probability as the habit becomes stronger. And there’s self-awareness to consider. And how much the habit clashes with the new context.

We did address your question. We said no. You started twisting the question to try and get the answer you wanted. We still said no. Actors have a strong enough sense of reality and fiction that they do not take on the traits of their characters, good or bad. Beyond that, you have to be humble as fuck to regularly play a character everyone’s meant to hate, and it’s not uncommon for hero actors to develop a hell of an ego. This is your answer.

One person said yes (and literally nothing else). Nobody said maybe. Everyone else said no. You are the only person who thinks it bears further discussion. I checked.

Asked yours last night. Hard to understand with her mouth full, but ultimately confirmed that it was no. We laughed pretty hard because otherwise she kept repeating the opposite all night.
What twisting? I only pointed out that you posed a question in bad faith. You gave an answer to your own dumb “question” and then proceeded to argue with and insult anyone who disagrees with your opinion. Why even ask in the first place? Clumsiness in phrasing is obviously not your greatest fault.
