Martial arts are art forms and require a great deal of discipline and dedication. I so admire people who focus their lives on it, because it’s not an easy thing to do.
Men, when they fight in movies, it’s a very different style. Harrison Ford was so cool when he had the whip, and Bruce Lee was such an artist that you couldn’t take your eyes off of him.
You respect all of these people that you know in the business as actors. And they sort of turn around and say, we really like your work. It’s a nice acknowledgment.
Pilates introduced me to muscles I never even knew I had. Soon I started to feel longer and leaner. Ten years of Pilates has really changed my body for the better.
It is an absolute privilege to be able to speak another language and have it be something you grew up with. I think it’s a very important thing and I think that everywhere else in the world people speak more than one language.
It’s so much fun playing Ling, but I have this fear that people are going to run away from me in terror on the streets. They think I’m going to bite their heads off or something.
