People always think I’m dainty when they meet me, but I’m really not. I’m very German – we’re not made out of sugar.

Well, I don't know anything about television. I'd never done it before. Initially, it was quite daunting to take on so much challenge and so much time with it. I think it is a great outlet for an actress because you really have 13 hours to bring a character to life, which is so much more than with film, and you have the luxury of time to tell a story and to really color a character.

I don’t know how you prepare for something like that. I cannot imagine living in a fishbowl like that. I don’t live here so I don’t know it will be that bad anyway because I live in Paris and we don’t have that sort of phenomenon there. So I don’t know, we’ll see what happens.

I only dance when I go out.

I made a French film called "Merry Christmas" which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece.

I like the idea of accessibility, coming from a lower-middle-class background myself, I feel like beauty and products should be accessible to all women over the world.

I don't make movies thinking: 'Oh, this is going to be a huge box-office hit.'
