I read every script from beginning to end, and I read every draft that I can. I like the show, I like the character, and I want to protect both of those things.

We take the show very seriously, but we don't take ourselves seriously.

Cast changes are a hard thing. For two years, we had this little family. We weren't together when these changes were decided upon. It all happened during our hiatus.

I think I've paid my dues. I've really put in a lot of time on set.

I approach my character with the question: What would an animal think? How would an animal respond? A lot of times, it's quick action and no fear, and sometimes it's irrational fear. You don't always know.

Linda Hamilton is my hero. She was so tough and so strong and so vulnerable at the same time. I think that's what woman action figures are allowed to be: vulnerable, in a way that women are.

You show your vulnerability through relationships, and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot.
