It's wild to be seen differently and have more visibility, but it's rewarding.
I love hip-hop; I love Sleigh Bells. I also love classical music and musical theater.
Going back is a nice way to give definition to each of the characters because they are so vastly different. I would never want them to get blended together.
I wanted to get everything right. I was super nerdy and academic. I got so much satisfaction out of getting good grades.
My mom taught me German before I knew English. And I went to French immersion school.
I'm so inspired and stimulated by the work that it doesn't ever feel like work.
As an actor, you're listening to the other person and always trying to be present and take everything they're giving you, but when they're not there, you have to produce that yourself.
I like 'Futurama.' That's kind of the only thing that's my sci-fi thing, although I was big into zombies for a time.
Auditions are not a natural environment, and you feel judged, even though everyone is just excited to find the right person.
I'm a huge 'Futurama' fan, so that's my closest sci-fi tendency.
My brothers and I always did improv stuff in our basement with our friends; we're super nerds, and that was our way of spending a Friday night.
So much of how you look at yourself in the mirror reflects how you feel about yourself, and how you comport yourself.
Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.
I would love to work with Gena Rowlands. I just don't know in what capacity. I'd play her daughter or granddaughter, or whatever. I would just love to work with her, in whatever capacity.
