Female ambition is such a complicated thing to play because it is an aggressive quality, and people respond very badly to women exhibiting any kind of aggression.

Acting is a strange job because your control is very limited.

I don't really want to play parts that I think are not fully developed or fleshed out, especially with female roles.

Films about women and their concerns are seen as frivolous, limited and, most damaging of all, niche.

Normally, when youre working on something, there are other characters that you have alliances with, and you have unified goals with some characters.

I would argue that something dark is lurking between the sexes, and that it is seeping out into cinema.

I love science fiction. I read a lot of science fiction.
