The Pre-shoot Days Are So

I'm Not Very Comfortable Being An Actorvist So To Get To Do Something That I Believe In Is A Much More Comfortable Way For Me To Be Political.

It Was Terrifying When Aaron Sorkin Announced That He Was Leaving West Wing, He And Tommy Schlamme. We Felt Like Our Parents Were Abandoning Us. It Was A Tremendously Sad Day And I'm Sure I Will Never Understand Exactly All The Reasons Why That Happened.

I Think One Of My Big Skills Is Making Unlikable Characters Likable Or Real In Some Way. No Matter How Hateful People Are, There's Always Something Vulnerable About Them, Or Something That You Can Understand Or Relate To. I Think That's My Job As An Actress - To Find Those.
