So often in TV, when you have an antagonist who's supposed to be the 'big baddie,' it's so easy for them to become cliched.

I try to keep things as varied as possible in my career, and after playing something as fun and over the top as Maryann on 'True Blood,' I wanted to find something antithetical to that.

When I do watch shows, or projects that I've been a part of, I'm pretty good at watching them objectively. And that's mostly because I want to see how it came out overall, what the overall story was and how it came together visually, what my mates were doing.

I thought a vegan diet would be too difficult, being on the road so much, but it's been far easier than I thought.

I'd like to think I'm an actor who leaves things at work.

Pears are my favorite fruit! Reminds me of childhood.

I've never had a plan. You look for different actors you want to work with or different subjects you want to explore, or sometimes it's just a momentary fancy.
