 I approach my character with the question: What would an animal think? How would an animal respond? A lot of times, it's quick action and no fear, and sometimes it's irrational fear. You don't always know. |
| I've been really fortunate to go from series to series to series. |
| When I was in university, my dream was to be a coach, like a high school track coach. Not to teach. |
| I think I'm a people person. I get very attached to people. And I've become so attached to all the people on my show, the cast, the crew and the producers. |
| I would be very happy doing movies. I love to work and I think I'm a little different. |
| In terms of being a role model, I didn't start out to be one. I don't go to work every day with that in mind. But, I do get a lot of fan mail from young girls. |
| Acting isn't the be-all end-all. There are a lot of other things in my life that will bring me joy if I didn't act anymore. |
| The most important thing is to just be good at what you do. You do a good job playing the character, and people will be taken up with your character, not your clothes. |
| You show your vulnerability through relationships, and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot. |
| It's all about exploring the more unpredictable aspects in the character, not just fighting people. |
| It doesn't help anybody to put out a bad script. |
| There are a lot of great actresses out there. You learn to appreciate each one for what they offer. |
| I desperately want a dog, but I've been told I travel too much, and I'm not allowed to have a dog. |
| Most women don't play like guys do: they don't wrestle, fight, get into brawls. They don't know how to express themselves in a physical, active way. |
| If you watch the show and the characters don't look at each other while they're talking, the actors probably aren't getting along. |
| I came to acting in a very circuitous way. |
| We take the show very seriously, but we don't take ourselves seriously. |
| When you're fighting with a stunt person, your intent is to miss. |
| It's part of the job to compensate for outfit. |
| I never was really into comics as a child, and I think if you miss the boat when you're a kid, you don't necessarily pick up on it when you're an adult. |
