More quotes by Alia Shawkat
Obviously the way people watch TV has changed so much, too, that it's not necessarily about the ratings anymore. There's a different kind of time lapse you put it out there and people absorb it at their speed, not just on Monday night at eight.
Alia Shawkat
I love being on movie sets. It's a very particular setting. And not all of the time, most of the time, there's always people you don't like, and you have to see them every day.
Alia Shawkat
As an actor you want to just like, act as much as possible.
Alia Shawkat
It is important to be involved in everything.
Alia Shawkat
I want to do film and TV. I want to make good stories. I want to write I want to be more involved.
Alia Shawkat
I think how I've gotten better, hopefully, at taking what I've got and being able to mish-mash something together, and as long as it feels real to me in the moment, then it feels like a success.

I feel like when you're dealing with your main character, it has to be relatable and feel grounded, and that's the kind of acting I like to do anyway.

Alia Shawkat

Alia Shawkat
I don't think it's good to say that you won't do certain things, but I don't necessarily have the natural urge to write.
Alia Shawkat
It's nice when you get to leave and travel and be busy and then come home.
Alia Shawkat
I'm lucky right now because I'm not that famous, people will look at the work just as the work, and people respond to it pretty well. It's just hard to know exactly what group I need to meet and where I need to be. I think fame helps, but I want it to be separate as much as it can. Fame is just so weird, people just love famous people.
Alia Shawkat
American shows can go on for 20 years. I respond more to the British format. Three seasons is a long run for them to tell a story.
Alia Shawkat
I go into work and get my hair and makeup done, go into wardrobe. I have to do three hours of school a day.
Alia Shawkat
I'm more verbal and not as private as I was as a kid.
Alia Shawkat
You get a kind of familiarity on a set when you're on a TV show.
Alia Shawkat
You don't want to not be single because you're scared of being single.
Alia Shawkat
When you focus on life, on enjoying and connecting with other people, that's when work comes. When you focus on work, you can never work. I'm always going through waves of that.
