I went to drama school for three years, and the whole thing there is that hopefully you are introduced to a man called William Shakespeare who is the greatest of all time of all storytelling.

Because I trained in theater, I always leave a film shoot feeling like I haven't done anything, like I just sat in front of the camera and whispered, essentially.

The main reason I did 'Captain America' was because I wanted to get out of my own head and stop taking my work so seriously.

I'm not really into makeup, not really into fuffing with hair and stuff.

I loved watching theatre, and film, and television. It was a fantastic outlet and my favourite thing to do. I can't remember the decision. It just felt like a completely natural thing... I just completely felt drawn into it and seduced by it all. I found myself going into it.

From a very young age, stories fuelled my imagination in the most wonderful way.

I don't think I'm curvaceous. It's simply that most other actresses are really, stupidly tiny.
