The Good Girl was the first time I was able to shed whatever the Rachel character was and disappear into someone else who wasn’t that much of a relief to me.” Aniston further added, "Once you play comedy, they don't think you can do the drama, and if you're only seen as a dramatic actor, they don't think you can do comedy. They forget we're actors, and we have it all in there. It's just a matter of finding it, gaining access to it, and obtaining the material."
