Everyone in the top of their fields is pouring everything they have into this, which is why it was such a massive undertaking and why filming was extended. It's not because things are going badly. It's because they're so massive and it's so complicated and we want to get it right. We're not just phoning it in. We're taking our time with it because it's really important.

Whenever I start freaking out and getting stressed, I have to remember that this is just the beginning.

I try to stay out of the public eye as much as possible because I want people to be able to watch my films and not be distracted.

Whenever I talk about being a feminist or speaking out for equality, it's also about the idea that men are treated with respect. It's not just about treating women like people and not abusing them. You also can't abuse men and you can't say things like, 'Oh, he was just a man. He didn't know any better.' Or 'He's a man, what did you expect?' That's just as abusive and damaging to men, I feel.

The secret lives of politicians are always shady. People need to accept the fact that their leaders aren't perfect. No one is.

I was a mess when the movie [Into the Forest] ended and I had to say goodbye. It was one of the hardest endings.

I feel like maybe I'm going to be in with the robots because they'll see the show [Westworld] and think I'm one of them.
