I've been an actor for 30 years, so I pretty much know how to do the basics of a fight without hurting anybody.

I actually started, this year, doing some voiceovers. I did some radio spots, and some games.

Image
Working with Dario [Argento] was a lot of fun. He's a larger-than-life character, and with an Italian accent.

I remember they did all the makeup tests on me for Darla... Sorry, for the vampire. I was the test monkey for the vampire look, so I went through numerous variations of the prosthetics and camera tests before I actually got the job.

[Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt] pushed me out of my comfort zone [in Buffy The Vampire Slayer ].

I only knew basic western trail riding. Nothing fancy.

I remember reading an interview that Anthony Hopkins had given about how he developed Hannibal Lecter. He said he just looked in the mirror and, I forget exactly what it was, but he looked in the mirror and realized that when he smiled, it looked creepy.

I still have people coming up to me, and it was, what, six or seven years ago when that finale aired? And they tell me who they were watching with, what their emotional reaction was, and how they were devastated for weeks about [Rita's death in Dexter].

There were a couple of years where I was skating and acting at the same time.

I love doing sitcoms and I love performing in front of a live audience, so [Payne] was a really fun experience.
Julie Benz
Image
It's very exciting to have fan response and fan reaction.

You don't realize how much a part of your character is part of yourself until you are no longer playing that character.

But I never worked with a northern horse before. They are very different from western horses.
Julie Benz
Image
During the rehearsal process I got thrown off the horse.

Image
I read the script [Havenhurst] and I went to bed, but I woke up because somebody had knocked on my door. Or at least it seemed like somebody knocked on my door at, like, 4 in the morning.

The meaning of life... I think the meaning of life is, I think it's love.
Julie Benz
Image
It's a moment that I will be asked about for the rest of my life as an actor, and I carry that moment with pride, that Rita [in Dexter] had such an impact and that it was such a gut-wrenching moment for audience members.
Julie Benz
Image
I just don't think [Payne] was the right time to do it, maybe. It was timing, not so much that it was executed wrong.
Julie Benz
Image
I was sent the script [of Havenhurst ], and I was out of town at the time, so I did a site meeting with Andrew [Erin]. It was so bizarre. I was staying in a hotel at the time, and the night before the meeting with Andrew, I learned there was a ghost in the hotel.

When they took me to do the camera test for the vampire make up, after they put the prosthetic on, I went though the entire process, I went back to my trailer and I looked in the mirror and I smiled.
