I can't imagine it if beauty was the only currency I used as an actress. It just doesn't interest me.

I'd love to do an action movie. Something with lots of stunts. Anything fast and dangerous and involving guns.

Mum wasn't at all religious, but she thought that going to the theatre was as important a ceremonial, communal experience that a person could have.

I like characters who have faults. I'm drawn to darker people.

It's people's worst fantasy to see their partner kissing someone else, even though it's a job and it's not real.

I have family dotted everywhere - Dad's in California; I've got aunts in Scotland and Virginia; family in Kansas City; family in Manchester and London.

I've had that experience of not liking people very much, but having tremendous respect for them.
