Strength and independence are always something that I'm drawn to in all my characters, no matter how different they are from one another.

I seem to be stuck in the '60s, and my favorite music, cars, and women's fashion come from that era. And the sense of social rebellion. It was a good time for a lot of things.

One of the biggest challenges in my job is letting go of the movie once you go home at night, and knowing you can't do anything to your performance once you've laid it on film.

My very best friend died in a car accident when I was 16 years old. That was the hardest blow emotionally that I have ever had to endure. Suddenly, you realize tomorrow might not come. Now I live by the motto, 'Today is what I have.'

I am a proud member of the LGBT community and could never bear the idea that someone could say I was closeted.

I love my horror films and they will always be very close to me.

When I run on the beach, it's always in slow motion. That's just how I roll.
