More quotes by Julie Benz
[ Angel series] really taught me that acting is not just about being emotionally challenged. It's about being physically challenged. And I enjoyed both aspects of that.
Julie Benz
I loved everything about that movie [Jawbreaker]. The fashion, the friendship amongst all of us girls... it was great. We had a blast filming it, and it was really wonderful. It was a very special time.
Julie Benz
But I never worked with a northern horse before. They are very different from western horses.
Julie Benz
Working with Dario [Argento] was a lot of fun. He's a larger-than-life character, and with an Italian accent.
Julie Benz
[Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt] pushed me out of my comfort zone [in Buffy The Vampire Slayer ].
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.
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
That was one of the reasons I took the role [of Mayor Amanda Rosewater in Defiance] - to be a part of something groundbreaking interested me.
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 would love to re-visit Darla. I miss her. I really do.
Julie Benz
I trained 8 hours a day 7 seven days a week and I had 2 weeks off in a year.
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
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
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
We shot [Hi Honey, I'm Home] on location in Orlando, Florida, so I was there by myself. And I remember I was late one day, and Gale Gordon pulled me aside, and he said, Honey, when it says you have to be here at 10 a.m., you need to be here at 9:30. And ever since, I've always been a half-hour early to my call time!
Julie Benz
Oh, well, in Los Angeles everybody is an actor, or a producer, or a writer, or a director, or an agent, or... So everybody understands the hours.
Julie Benz
You don't realize how much a part of your character is part of yourself until you are no longer playing that character.
Julie Benz
I had to do some emergency cram sessions with the dialogue coach on set [of the Punisher: War Zone]. But it was fun, because every actor on that movie had to do an accent, so we were all talking the whole time in our accents.
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
I love doing action films that do challenge me physically. I feel it's my job to keep my stamina up and be as physically fit as possible, so that I can just jump in and do it. It takes its toll sometimes and it's hard work, but I love that.
