I'm also very proud of my work on Taken.
Everyone else trains just as hard as well and that there really is no such a thing as overnight success.
To us marriage is first, everything else is second.
And I had never played an evil character before up until that point so I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to do as far as the acting choices were.
I actually, when I read the script I knew it was going to be a big hit. In my gut, my gut said that this show was going to be it.
I don't think as big and as creative as Joss.
I love doing action films that do challenge me physically. I feel it's my job to keep my stamina up and be as physically fit as possible, so that I can just jump in and do it. It takes its toll sometimes and it's hard work, but I love that.
Cause at the end of the day, honestly, at the end of the day when you're in your death bed and that's it, I think it's the relationships you've had and the people that you've touched and the people that have touched you that matter.
If you're offered something, you're not really sure exactly what is that they saw in you that they think is the character so it's a little scary, I feel.
During the rehearsal process I got thrown off the horse.
I would love to re-visit Darla. I miss her. I really do.
I really take pride in the relationship that I have with my husband.
When I first started I was always known as The Girl on the Sitcom with the Funny Voice.
When they took me to do the camera test for the vampire make up, after they put the prosthetic on, I went though the entire process, I went back to my trailer and I looked in the mirror and I smiled.
