Blade Runner was an incredibly influential movie, in terms of the way that it envisioned what the future was going to look like.

People always say to me, "What's wrong with Hollywood? They don't want to make female-driven movies." And that's not where the problem lies. It lies with us, in society. When we make these movies, nobody goes to see them.

I grew up in South Africa and I would look at maps and we were at the bottom of the world. There was this whole thing up there. I was always reading encyclopedias about the world. So travel was something I was always attracted to.

I think acting is really fully adapting - to your surroundings, to your emotions, to the people that you're working with, to being tired, to want to go home, to being lonely, to being happy. It's adapting for me, and trusting. Adapting and trusting, that's my format right there.

I just want to make good movies. Honestly, the only difference for me with this stuff is that there is more people on the set.

I always knew I would adopt. Always.

That's why I like my job so much, because at the end of the day they're fruits of labor that you don't pick very easily. And I love that.
