Well, first of all, I'm an incredibly gullible person - I'm so bad that when I said that to someone, my friend said, 'You know, 'gullible' isn't even in the dictionary.' And I said, 'Really?' As I was saying 'Really?' I will acknowledge that I then realized what was happening, but that's how bad I am.
I'm really fascinated by someone who chooses worst-case scenarios as a profession. Someone who obviously thrives on crisis,
It's a really ambitious show and that to me is really exciting, ... It's something that really feels like its own, while paying homage to other things.
I think the level of ambition of this piece is something that attracted all of us, ... doing something in a genre where you can deal with supernatural elements, but really see them through the human beings.
I think that there's a tendency for actors who play strong women to have them take on all the worst characteristics of men, to become cold and detached and hardened.
I think when I first started acting there were different people who I thought, 'I want that person's career or that person's career.' And as time has gone on, it's become really clear to me what is important to me; getting the best roles, the roles that I feel are challenging and scary and that I haven't done yet.
My favorite thing is to have a big dinner with friends and talk about life.
I generally make a sort of playlist for my iPod for whatever project I'm doing.
I feel like I'm the only person - or woman, at least - who hasn't read 'Fifty Shades of Grey.
I'm fiercely protective of my privacy.
As an actor, you're naked emotionally; you're revealing yourself emotionally.
You can't not be happy around penguins. You're unfortunately happy and cold but the happiness makes up for the coldness.
When my friends have a health concern, they call me. Ive always been a vitamin taker. I also take digestive enzymes and antioxidants, and supplements that help with the thyroid and adrenals for my time-zone changes.
I like being the lead but I like being in an ensemble. There are different challenges and dilemmas with both. If you're carrying a film, there's a certain weight, but there are a lot of scenes to explore the character. When you're in an ensemble, you have to convey the entire character in a limited number of scenes.
