“I wanted to go to drama school, but when I got the part in ‘Falling,’ I got an agent, so it seemed a good idea to work.”

I can definitely hold my hands up and say wrestling wasn’t something that I grew up watching.

Someone asked if I wanted to be the first female Bond, and I was saying that I don’t think we necessarily need that whole conversation.

If you ever want to be interrogated, get Michael Shannon to do it. He’s an amazing man. I loved working with him.

The Kate Winslet thing has been a shocker. I was like, that is the most ridiculous claim.

The women I’m attracted to playing I hope will mean something to someone.

The Silence of the Lambs’ is my favourite book, favourite film.

Feisty women are my calling!

We actually did perform it in front of all those thousands of people. And just beforehand, we had a little dress rehearsal, and there were all these famous wrestlers going around and watching as well. Terrifying.

I love watching faces as they grow up. It’s the difference between so many strong British actresses compared to what America does to women.

I always hate it when I see the wrong person in massive roles, so for me, my biggest fear would be accepting a role I thought I wouldn’t find the rhythm of.

In order for us to appreciate this world, we have to be a bit more honest, and I hope I do that.

I love all of Kate Winslet’s characters. And Natalie Portman. If I can have a smidgen of what they’ve done, that would be awesome.

Why aren’t there these epic roles for women, for whatever age you are?

Sometimes in the real world, there is fire between people.

I have been enormously lucky. My first role was in a great film by a woman director.

Everybody’s story of getting into the industry is just as difficult as the next person. Whether you come from money or no money, it’s not easy… you have to offer yourself; you can’t expect someone to get you.

You are bound to want a player at some stage who is represented by this guy and you will have to try to work around the personality of the agent.

In a well functioning world, tools and agents are complementary.

Every disciple is to be an agent of the kingdom of God.

Agent Mom is a perfect opportunity for me to do what I love… develop characters, act and take incredible stories to my fans.

Travel agents would be wiser to ask us what we hope to change about our lives rather than simply where we wish to go.

So yes, I can absolutely see myself cast as Agent Mom.

Approximately four years ago, we were told that Jerry Rice would be a free agent and there were people who felt that he no longer could contribute.

An astounding panoply of toxic substances, venomous creatures, poison plants, animals and insects, deleterious environments, virulent pathogens, infectious agents, noxious gases, and combustible chemicals were marshalled to defeat foes.
