Do actors subconsciously mirror their character? (SOMETIMES)?

And if so, is it also morphed into OTHER previous characters, they’d resemble in their personal lives?

IF this occurs, is it based PURELY on the:

likability of their character?

OR

the habitual constancy of enacting their given character? Regardless of the character quirks: positive or negative

My logic here is:

these people are LITERALLY pretending to be someone with a bunch of other people they have never met until that time. A whole season would mean a few months of practicing aka redoing lines & takes

OVER & OVER again…

not only so (this said muscle memory)

but they’re seeing the faces of the new characters and instead of building friendships with those other actors in real time- they are essentially watching those characters (played by the actors) unfold before them as if it were a real engagement/ friendship/encounter.

So if the series is long & many seasons go by-

wouldn’t a single actor who’s learning another actor express (not themselves but the wishes & behaviors of the director), & pretending for so long…

Adopt the traits, assigned to that actor, and make it almost 2nd nature?

maybe not a whole belief/ moral

but the quirks/behavioral traits?

For example:

if their character is loud- they will become loud in their everyday lives.

if their character is loud but they are quiet in person, they may become more balanced between loud & quiet in their personal lives?

The range cannot be so well predicted-

the just HOW much they will be of their character/ just how loud they would be, for example.

& was Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron man, fitted for his persona? Or did RDJ truly adopt traits & the personal display of Iron Man?

Do actors typically choose roles/ characters that fit more with their own character traits/ beliefs?

Ideally, I’d love to hear what Morgan Freeman would say, BUT

I’m curious & would be extremely humbled/ grateful to read your liberated opinions.

I Can’t help but feel like this is the case. Should women just wait for the guy to chase us?

Every relationship where I’ve “chased” the guy (initiated, flirted first, asked them out, etc) I’ve gotten cheated on.

None of the relationships where the guys chased me ended like this. We parted amicably.

Is there any truth to that people put in less effort in relationships where they were chased? Is it because that person wasn’t their first choice to begin with? Is it because you subconsciously feel like you settled?
