It's changed the landscape of my career without a doubt. 'Deadwood' started to do that, but then 'Breaking Bad' really shifted everything for me.
I certainly had times when I thought this wasn't going to work out, but just being a working actor felt like a victory.
For women, no matter what career, what path you choose, it's still an uphill battle to work your way up to these top leadership positions. And you're much more closely scrutinized for everything - for things that men are not.
I really did like 'The Wolf of Wall Street.' But not seeing women represented in that world, it definitely had less resonance for me.
In my experience, you get a job for a reason. Your work life happens for a reason.
I was just so intrigued with good stories from the time I was a little girl. When my parents would take us out to dinner, I would bring a book along. And they were perfectly happy with that.
