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.
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.
I'm really fascinated by someone who chooses worst-case scenarios as a profession. Someone who obviously thrives on crisis,
I think we are in a place now in our world where so much is going on, and so many things we never thought could happen are happening, so I found what I read here very relatable,
What I've realized is that we're our own harshest critics. We give ourselves limitations. But I want to push through that wall, on a creative and personal level.
My favorite thing is to have a big dinner with friends and talk about life.
It's not often that the idea of continuing something for a potentially long period of time sounds exciting to me, because I really am a gypsy by nature.
I generally make a sort of playlist for my iPod for whatever project I'm doing.
It's interesting how when you walk into a room in LA there's a sense of what you walk in, as is sort of what you can do. So I spent a lot of time choosing different things to hopefully show people that maybe that's not the case.
I'll always take an artistic endeavor over a career move.
I'm a huge Wong Kar-Wai fan.
