I have a dark sense of humor, so I definitely like to work on stuff like that. I do enjoy working in comedies where I can create a fun and broad character.
Fiona GubelmannIt's fun because I really do love meeting new people. Comedy can be so different from show to show and from writer to writer and actor to actor. People don't set out to make a bad show.
Fiona GubelmannSometimes the most incredible shows don't do well because they're ahead of their time or people just don't get into it quickly enough.
Fiona GubelmannIf I could play any superhero, I'd probably want to play Wonder Woman. She's pretty awesome.
Fiona GubelmannI grew up doing theater, so I'm used to working with people where you can definitely ask another person a question or advice or say, "Hey, let's try it this way," or "What do you think if I did it this way?"
Fiona GubelmannI am so happy, each and every day that I come to set. Some days, I'll be there 12 hours, and it feels like five minutes have gone by.
Fiona GubelmannI have a lot of anxiety about the red carpet. As a woman, it's uncomfortable to be in a position in which people are judging you, looking at what you're wearing, and criticizing you - not necessarily in a negative way.
Fiona GubelmannI would love to work with Guillermo del Toro and J.J. Abrams. I think they are creative geniuses that are constantly producing great work, and they're two people that I would just love to work with.
Fiona GubelmannI actually got started in acting when I was in pre-school. I was really into dance and performing, so my mom had me in dance classes, and then I got involved in a local theater company.
Fiona GubelmannI was young, not married, didn't have kids and I was like, "Why not just try for something now and see what happens while nothing's tying me down?" And, I've been fortunate, since I graduated, to work in the industry and keep on working.
Fiona GubelmannI've learned the importance of speaking up for myself and voicing my opinions and my ideas. I'm definitely a shy person.
Fiona GubelmannI definitely prefer working in comedy over drama, but at the same time, when it comes to comedy, I tend to prefer comedies that have a great sense of truth to them and that come from an honest place.
Fiona GubelmannIn terms of a character, I would love to play a fairy. I think that would be really fun.
Fiona GubelmannI was raised to pursue my passions and pursue the things that I love, and to just live life to the fullest.
Fiona GubelmannMaybe down the road, I can see myself being part of the creative process, but acting is definitely my first and true love.
Fiona GubelmannI'm definitely excited about roles where I get to wear cool costumes. I love Game of Thrones, and would love to do something like that. I'm totally a dork.
Fiona GubelmannOne of the things I've learned - before I would go on a show, I was like, "Oh God, I hate that show" or "That show is gonna get canceled." But now after being full-time on a show, you see how difficult it is and how much work goes into it and how so many decisions are based on finances or people's schedules or talent or location issues. It's a miracle that anything gets made.
