More quotes by Jessica Chastain

It's tough, acting. You have to walk two lines of a tightrope. There's the all-consuming fear of failure: I'm about to fall flat on my face. There's that and there's also confidence - you have to be confident in order to try things - and they fight each other all the time.

Jessica Chastain
It's okay to be ambitious, it's okay to be over-prepared.
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
Before, it was just about making the films - and now it's releasing them. Which is a steep learning curve.
Jessica Chastain

Jessica Chastain
