I'm a lot more grounded now, a lot more settled in my skin.

Being on a set for one day is hard enough no matter what it is. You're the new guy, and you go in, and as you get comfortable it's over.

It's hard to be scared when there are 80 people around you.

We need to humanize women instead of making the idea of a woman be so stigmatized. That's what's interesting to me as a writer and a director - being able to tell stories that represent women as human beings and don't relate specifically to their gender. I want to just allow them to have their journeys.

I feel like I never get to play any version of myself or get to be a normal person.

When the scene is over, a lot of people cut. The actors are acting. And they just stop acting. But I think that leaving people in that moment and seeing where else it can go and pushing them to take it further, a lot of special things can happen.

I don't like anything new.
