More quotes by 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
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
I've had to learn how to say 'no' to offers.
Jessica Chastain
I don't like the idea that fame could mean that people can no longer relate to me.
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 takes me a long time to make a big purchase...
Jessica Chastain
It's okay to be ambitious, it's okay to be over-prepared.
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.
Jessica Chastain
If you don't fully take every moment and love every moment and every person that you're with, your life will be over before you realise.
Jessica Chastain
No matter what, I'm going to ask for more.
Jessica Chastain
I don't want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the café to get my tea, and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading, then walking to the beach.
Jessica Chastain
I take great responsibility in any character that I play.
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
We need more points of view from women and we need more support for female directors and writers in the industry.
Jessica Chastain
I'm really lucky because my goal, as an actor, is to disappear into the characters that I'm playing.
Jessica Chastain
Before, it was just about making the films - and now it's releasing them. Which is a steep learning curve.
Jessica Chastain
When you're on a Terrence Malick film, it's like you're part of a family.
Jessica Chastain
I like things where I can do a physical transformation, and I love accents and voices, and I'm never going to play the same character twice.
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
I'm going to ask what is correct, what I deserve, especially in relation to male actors.
