My first paying job, when I was 15, I was a day camp counselor.

In terms of being a role model, I didn't start out to be one. I don't go to work every day with that in mind. But, I do get a lot of fan mail from young girls.

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

I can't say that I've made the transition to movies.

It's all about exploring the more unpredictable aspects in the character, not just fighting people.

That's the thing with sci-fi and action roles. You have to play the danger as real. If you don't, you end up with egg on your face. You have to commit. You can't think about how stupid it might look without the special effects.

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