More quotes by Julie Benz
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.
Julie Benz
So it's nice to know that Rita had that impact, and it was nice to end a character on a high note like that. But, again, in the moment... I always say, nobody was more devastated than me [from Rita's death in Dexter]!
Julie Benz
Cause at the end of the day, honestly, at the end of the day when you're in your death bed and that's it, I think it's the relationships you've had and the people that you've touched and the people that have touched you that matter.
Julie Benz
That's a hard question, because I started skating when I was three, so I don't really remember life before it, and I don't know what it is like not to work hard at something.
Julie Benz
[Dario Argento] would yell at you in Italian, and I'd have no idea what he was saying. I'd just go, Okay!. But it was a really great experience [filming Two Evil Eyes ].
Julie Benz
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.
Julie Benz
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
But I never worked with a northern horse before. They are very different from western horses.
Julie Benz
[John Larroquette] is very generous as the star of a show. He always made sure that if we had a joke that didn't work or something, he'd fight for the other actors.
Julie Benz
If you're offered something, you're not really sure exactly what is that they saw in you that they think is the character so it's a little scary, I feel.
Julie Benz
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.
Julie Benz
No one ever asks me about Breeze O'Rourke! I did the pilot for[Payne] right after Jawbreaker, or at least right around the same time, and it was an Americanized version of Fawlty Towers. That was the first time I worked with John Larroquette, and it was definitely not the last time.
Julie Benz
I love doing sitcoms and I love performing in front of a live audience, so [Payne] was a really fun experience.
Julie Benz
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
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].
Julie Benz
It's very exciting to have fan response and fan reaction.
Julie Benz
[Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt] pushed me out of my comfort zone [in Buffy The Vampire Slayer ].
Julie Benz
That movie [Jawbreaker] was so much fun to shoot. We were all in our mid-20s at the time, playing high school students. Which was the point. It was the point of the film to hire older actors to play high school students. But we had a blast.
Julie Benz
I trained 8 hours a day 7 seven days a week and I had 2 weeks off in a year.
Julie Benz
[Two Evil Eyes] was shot in Pittsburgh, and that's where I was born and raised, so it was really nice to be a part of Pittsburgh film culture.
