I don't get to play the same role over and over in different movies. The roles that I get to play are quite varied, which is great.

I'm terrified of learning lines, and I've always been terrified that I won't learn them.

I have done film, television and theatre - all at a pretty substantial level - I don't think it's possible for American actors to do that.

I'm not strong-willed, actually. I'm a complete pushover. I love to be told what to do.

The role of women has always been undervalued in the spy world, always undermined in terms of recognition. Unfairly so. It's a world that needs women.
