'Night of the Comet' established me as a strong woman. And let's face it, this business is very surface and one dimensional - so it's easy to get typecast.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
From now on, I approach the cinema as a business woman.
I've been fortunate enough in my career that I haven't been typecast at all.
T.V. found me. I was offered jobs. It came in handy when I started having babies. Just one night's work, and then I could go home. I loved 'Surprise Surprise', but it was hard work. 'Blind Date' was a doddle by comparison.
I started in this business on soap operas.
See, I'm fortunate that I get around a lot because of my movie business.
I got intrigued by working in small theatres.
I have been typecast in my career, although the type changes with the decades.
When I was first starting out, and I was less established, I was really concerned about being typecast.
What 'Twilight' gave me was years to consider how I wanted to work otherwise.
The night cometh when no man can work.
