I really enjoy playing intelligent characters. I'm more interested in that than just emotional kind of Mum characters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I enjoyed playing someone who is a professional, intelligent, defined by her work and not her role as a wife or mother.
The thing I respond to the most is just great writing, interesting characters. I like to think that there is something fun about playing a character that has a lot of authority in her own life.
Over the years, I have been asked to play these sort of scary frenetic characters that express their emotions physically.
I look for characters who are emotionally driven.
Sometimes, as a young woman, you are boxed in more to playing characters that are emotional and vulnerable.
Every once in awhile I like to play dark ladies, crazy ladies, but most often I look for characters that are strong, intelligent, caring - usually earth women, because that's basically how I see myself.
I'll play a happy character, but most characters are driven by a pain or a fear. They are driven by something deep down, and most people are like that in the sense. And so, that's what interests me.
I like to play very raw characters, characters who have a degree of vulnerability and passion about what they're doing.
I like playing characters with as many emotions as possible. I'd love to play a really crazy person - someone truly out of her mind.
I have a huge emotional attachment to characters I've created, especially the viewpoint characters.
