More quotes by Jessica Chastain
It's easier to do an action scene than a love scene. I love fighting. When the camera's not rolling, I'll usually punch some of the actors, just for fun.
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!

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

I remember being a teenager and having a boyfriend - this guy I thought I was way better than, and completely out of his league. He was a year younger than me. And he broke up with me. It was so shocking, and I couldn't believe it.
Jessica Chastain
Every time an actress is celebrated for her great work, I cheer. For the more brilliant their performance, the more the audience demands stories about women... And as we all know: a great year for women in film, is just a great year for film.
Jessica Chastain
I was excited that my films would finally see the light of day and people would see them. But I never imagined that such nice things would be said about a lot of my films.
Jessica Chastain
Maybe that's because there are so few women lobbyists if they're there, it's for something they strongly believe in, not just for financial gain.
Jessica Chastain
I think both nature and grace live within everyone, and I always strive to be in a world of grace and compassion.
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
I'm the unknown everyone's already sick of.
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've had to learn how to say 'no' to offers.
Jessica Chastain
I always say I am a realist, and my mom says, No, you just have anxiety.
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.
