Taylor Kitsch is ready to do "voiceover sh*t" to sell himself

With tracks like 'John Tucker Must Die', 'Snakes on a Plane' and 'John Carter' to his name, Taylor Kitsch is open to all offers.

The 'Terminal List' actor who portrayed Tim Riggins in the beloved football drama series 'Friday Night Lights' opened up jokingly about what explains his roles: cash and ringing .

When asked if he would ever want to be a parent, Kitsch said that "it wouldn't have been great" for his career. "You shut down and start doing shit for money," Kitsch said.

As the Esquire reporter asked if an 'Ice Age 12' would be on the table, Kitsch replied, "Oh, I'll do voice-over. But do I want to do 'Saw 9? -14"? Probably not."

The 'Painkiller' star continued to tease, "But I'm also for sale. If they want to give me $10 million a movie, I'll go do 'Saw fucking 9-14,' before add: "I just wanted to make it look like I'm not that cheap."

With Kitsch engaging in performances such as transforming into a Navy SEAL for 'Lone Survivor' or delving deep into the psyche of cult leader David Koresh for the Netflix miniseries 'Waco', this doesn't sound like a "Ice Age 12" would even be on its horizon.

Kitsch spent six months researching the late Koresh to portray the leader of the Branch Davidians for the 2018 biopic. However, weeks before filming, Kitsch told his reps to get him out of the contract. "Breathe," Kitsch's team told him at the time. He explained, “I was like, 'OK. But try to get me out.'"

Quite simply, as Kitsch added, after committing to a role, "it's your life now."

The actor previously told Variety that after "Waco," which he also produced, he went to "therapy" and motorcycle rides to shake off the character. “You slowly reintegrate into reality,” Kitsch said. “I know I'm going down this road, and I know I'm going to have these repercussions, and it'll be the same process and it will sting but it will be fine. But I was not. It kind of blindsided me, even though I thought I was ready for it. So I kept telling my team, "I need time."

Next, Kitsch directs "Pieces", which he also wrote and will star in. The drama follows three Detroit friends whose lives change once they intercept a drug run.

"I've seen enough where I'm excited to take my own swing," Kitsch told Variety, citing that Peter Berg produces and "Yellowstone" creator Taylor Sheridan "got his hands on it" in behind the scenes. “I think creative control is important. And that story just won't leave my brain, to be honest with you. It took me a long time to write it, and I'm really proud of it."
