I'm trying to fight typecasting as hard as I can, while I have time.

Just because youre of the same sex, what difference does it make? Get married to whomever you want.
Famke Janssen
Everybody gets typecast in movies, but you have to make wise choices. I'd say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look, so you have to fight that. If producers had their way, I'd only be in action films, but I'm interested in a more varied career than that.
Famke Janssen
It's not as if you can act bigger to fit the surroundings or the budget more. Whatever, it just doesn't work that way.
Famke Janssen
Triple tonguing? It was sort of invented. It wasnt in the script. It was something that I came up with.
Famke Janssen
I have a friend in New York who's a stylist and I went over to her place because she's got a lot of clothes. I basically ended up wearing most of it. So it's all stuff that I brought over.
