I don't have any type of sketch-comedy or stand-up background.

As the lead of a movie, you really set the tone off-camera as well, and that's a really big responsibility.

I had this crazy job, though, when I first got to Los Angeles... I answered this ad in the back of the newspaper to be a telephone psychic, and I did that for two days.
Jenna Fischer
Image
Yeah, you know I don't ever see myself doing a super-gritty, hard-core drama.
Jenna Fischer
Image
It makes it really hard to just go to a dinner party because, in my work life, I'm surrounded by the funniest people, ever. I'm really spoiled. I laugh a lot, in my day.

Image
I'm not one to air my dirty laundry for the whole world.
Jenna Fischer
Image
Growing up, I was a very shy, wallflower type. I was not a nerd, but not popular. I was just invisible, like that person you probably didn't know you were in school with.

Laura from The Mysteries Of Laura is the most different from me personally that I've ever played. I'm a very thoughtful, forward-thinking, planner kind of person. I love Excel spreadsheets and five-year-plans, and I love to review every year how my New Year's resolutions went. I'm like that, and that is not Laura at all.

I think that there is a tragic misfit at the core of me, and I've just done a lot of work on myself. I love a good self-help book I've read a ton of them. I love self-help seminars and therapy and all that.

Image
I don't have real big aspirations to be a movie star. I would love to be on a long-running hit TV show. You end up playing a defining role.

Finally, I was called for The Office and I was really lucky, because a lot of the shows that I went out for I would work my way up from, like, an audition with the casting director to the director to the producers to the studio, I'd go through seven auditions, and then they'd give the role to a famous actress.
Jenna Fischer
Image
I'm very deliberate and I love Excel spreadsheets and I love five-year plans and all that. So it felt really fun to play someone so incredibly different from myself.
Jenna Fischer
Image
I'm a believer in the parent first, friend second philosophy, and trying to find that balance.
Jenna Fischer
Image
I think we all spend, sometimes, more time at our jobs than we do at home, and there are people that we wouldn't necessarily choose to spend so much time with. So those irritations and those, just those situations I think are really relatable.
Jenna Fischer
Image
I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.

Cause it's really hard, it's hard to be an actor.

I always worry that people are going to be very confused sometimes timelines get confused with how movies get made. So when I say, Oh, I made this movie when I was going through a divorce, people think, Oh no! She's pregnant with a child and divorced?

Tilda Swinton is a great example of a person who completely disappears into a role.
Jenna Fischer
Image
You never go into a marriage expecting to get divorced. You go into a marriage expecting it's going to last forever, and you have a lot of ways you dream about the future. You have all these expectations, and then you have to adjust those expectations, and it can be a very unnerving, confusing time.

I went to a little liberal-arts college in Missouri called Truman State University.
