I never thought I would have an opportunity to act in the United States, and continue to expand my career outside of Europe. To be honest, my reality is bigger than I would have ever dared to dream.

I'm not a very good impersonator, my friends maybe, but not famous people.

What I really tried to do with Helen was make her show this sad side of her. She was married off at 16, was so young and living in this castle that can't leave because of how she looks, and married to a man she hates and three times her age.

I have a kind of boring personal life, to the paparazzi anyway, and I don't hang with the cool crowd.

I have three goddaughters - I'm not sure why they trust me, because I have no experience with children - but I try.

A well-cut dress is my personal style. I definitely like it classic; less is more. The thing I despise most is vulgarity.

I really feel like the first day I went to drama school and I went up on stage, that I found my vocation. It's kind of a cliched thing to say but I really feel like it was what I was meant to do.
