More quotes by Jessica Chastain
Any man that dates me, the thing they're gonna have to live up is my dad - he's a real hero.
Jessica Chastain
I love fall because I love the whole cuddling aspect of it, and a sweater dress has that vibe of I'm going to hunker down and be warm, but it's also very feminine.
Jessica Chastain
I spent a lot of the last five years on a set, and every once in a while you take stock of your life and look at what you're doing.
Jessica Chastain
I don't want to torture anything. It's about trying to live a life where I'm not contributing to the cruelty in the world... While I am on this planet, I want everyone I meet to know that I am grateful they are here.
Jessica Chastain
Most of the women I spoke to were pushing agendas that they felt connected to - more so than with the male lobbyists I met with.
Jessica Chastain
An actress friend of mine shared a great trick. She told me to stick my tongue behind my teeth when I smile to keep from over-smiling. If you smile without doing it, sometimes your gums show a little too much. It's an actor's trick!
Jessica Chastain
When you're on a Terrence Malick film, it's like you're part of a family.
Jessica Chastain
You know, it's recently come into focus for me why I want to be an actor: It's because of the connection I feel to people.
Jessica Chastain
I'm used to working really hard to get a role. I was always auditioning and talking my way into roles.
Jessica Chastain
People were confused by me, and at first I was auditioning a lot for the crazy characters or the victim, someone who'd been attacked. Which is great, because usually those are the best acting roles.
Jessica Chastain
I've actually been given a great gift. When I walk into an audition with a director, I'm carrying no baggage. They haven't seen me in anything, even though I've done nine films.
Jessica Chastain
No matter what, I'm going to ask for more.
Jessica Chastain
When I first moved to Los Angeles, I don't think anyone knew what to do with me.
Jessica Chastain
I'm really lucky because my goal, as an actor, is to disappear into the characters that I'm playing.
Jessica Chastain
I take great responsibility in any character that I play.
Jessica Chastain
I'm very sensitive in real life. I cannot not cry if someone around me is crying. I will start to cry if someone is crying, even if it's not appropriate. I have that thing in me, a weakness or sensitivity.
Jessica Chastain
Women perform great in the box office. Audiences want to see lead female characters.
Jessica Chastain
I don't really drink, and I've never been to a rave. I used to cut school to read Shakespeare, not to make out in the park.
Jessica Chastain
I absolutely made the decision that that cannot be the reason why I'm doing a film or a job. For me, it's always about the script and whether I'm doing something that I've never done before.
Jessica Chastain
When something happens, I always check myself and know it's going to go away. So be prepared for it. This is a tough business for actors who are sensitive. If you try to hold on to things, you'll go crazy.
