When I'm challenged, I grow. I never want to be in a situation where I'm not challenged and not afraid. One of my favorite feelings is stepping into a film and knowing that I'm a little bit afraid of what I have to accomplish.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like being challenged. That's the only way you grow.
I have a hard time articulating the emotional experience of working on a film. Even when I have meetings on films or discussing them with directors, I find that's my biggest challenge. Different words mean different things to people.
I like challenges. That's why if I read a script, and I feel, 'Oh, I can't do this,' I'll take that role, because if I feel like, 'Oh, I can do this,' I don't want to take that because I can't learn from that film.
I look for something that can challenge me or makes me ever so slightly afraid - fearful of how I am going to approach it - then I'll go for it. If the project appears linear or predictable, then I'll usually give it a miss. Anything that involves me being stretched as an actor, I go for.
I love a challenge. And I love defying limitation, gender stereotypes, and people's expectations of me as an actress.
I'm drawn to opportunities that are going to challenge me and cause me to look outside of my own experiences.
I tend to have this perverse reaction to authority and stress: I become more confident and clear when a challenge is enormous.
As an actor, or as a person, I like to do things that are challenging.
I just want to be challenged. I want to be proud of what I do, and I want to learn new things and keep growing.
Basically, I'm afraid of everything in life, except filmmaking.
