I Am Never Embarrassed By

There's More Empathetic Representations Than We're Used To Seeing. I Honestly Feel Like In The Early Days Of Hollywood, Women Did Have Those. Women Had Very Traditional Roles In Society Of Wife And Mother, But When They Went To The Movies, They Got To See Women Be, Like, Really Cool, Amazing Characters And Femme Fatales And All Of This. And Then There Was Just This Systemic Reaction Where It Was All About, "how Do We Make Money?" And Everybody Wants To Sell Things To Boys. And Then Women's Entertainment Became Devalued In A Way That I Think Is Disrespectful And Hurtful.

I Met My Husband In College, And We've Been Together For 21 Years - It's The Thing I'm Most Proud Of In My Life. We Were Trying To Figure Out How We Could Make Our Lives As Flexible As Possible And Do Something We Both Really Enjoyed.

As An Actor, You Go Through Life Thinking "this Stop Is The Last Stop," So You Just Put Your Heart And Soul Into Everything And Do Your Best Work.

I'm Not Trying To Have Jake Gyllenhaal's Baby. I'm Not A Major Fashionista. I'm Not Going Through A Lesbian Phase. I'm Just Normal. I'm Just Really Freakin' Normal.

I'm Very Grateful To Be In A Position Now Where I Have A Lot More Control To Tell The Stories I Want To Tell. I Feel No Obligation To Tell Any One Story. I Will Tell You My Interest Mostly Lies In Telling Stories About Empowered Women, But I Don't Feel It's An Obligation. But I Do Feel Like I Am Servicing A Voice.
