I'm perfectly happy to have the reputation as a comedian. I love comedies, I would love to be doing more comedies. But I also feel like I hit the limit on playing the girlfriend type in a lot of rom-coms that aren't actually rom-coms, but guy movies that happen to have girls in them.
Elizabeth BanksI love physical comedy. I love Oscar Wilde, I love Shakespeare comedies, I love improv.
Elizabeth BanksI'm very grateful to be in a position now where I have a lot more control to tell the stories I want to tell. I feel no obligation to tell any one story. I will tell you my interest mostly lies in telling stories about empowered women, but I don't feel it's an obligation. But I do feel like I am servicing a voice.
Elizabeth BanksI'm actively looking for things to direct again. I had such an amazing experience on this. I really am spoiled.
