You can shave your head, but I've had to gain a lot of weight for movies, I've had to drop weight really fast for movies. I've had to learn accents or embody physical behaviors or twitches and things like that. And sometimes you take to some things easily and sometimes [not]. That's the challenge of the job.

I grew up on Bette Davis movies, and Marlene Dietrich, Marilyn Monroe.

I've always been comfortable with my sexuality. I'm blessed to have been raised by a woman who never made me feel ashamed about what's underneath my clothes. That's a part of me and I don't run away from it.

I think we're at a time where people just want to join together and cause change. People don't want to live like this any more.

I think substitution is a huge part of acting, but I don't personalise my work that much.

I don't try to kind of go for the overly sympathetic. I don't really like sympathy; I don't like it for myself. Sometimes sympathy you feel like, you're kind of trying to victimize someone.

What I know in my heart is that women and girls on the ground are powerful and that they are leaders.
