After the 'Golden Compass,' I wasn't sure if I'd ever get another acting job.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Once I found acting and found that I could get away with it and make a living out of it, I was thrilled.
I'm still an actor who wants to work all the time.
I just wanted to be one of those actors who works at the National Theatre the whole time.
I didn't believe that I'd ever be lucky enough to be able to make a living as an actor.
I started as a director and just fell upon acting.
Acting was all I ever really wanted to do.
I'd prefer to go under the radar and just do the acting without being famous for it.
I've made a career of taking roles that other actresses didn't want.
I definitely still have my hand in acting. I don't think I would be able to walk away from it. It's my passion.
'The Bank Job,' for me, was a great opportunity for me to do some good acting, you know?
