More quotes by Julie Benz
It's very exciting to have fan response and fan reaction.

Darla [from Buffy The Vampire Slayer] was where I grew up. For me, Darla was like going to graduate school for acting. I learned so much with Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt. They encouraged us to make creative choices with our characters.
Julie Benz
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.
Julie Benz
Playing Amanda [in Defiance] was a wonderful opportunity for me. She was strong, dynamic, a complete badass, not defined her relationship with a man. She could hold her own. I really loved her.

[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
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.

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.

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
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
The fans are just as passionate about the projects as we are about making them.
Julie Benz
I originally read for the roles of Debra and Rita [in Dexter], because they didn't know what direction they were going in, and I worked so hard on Deb, because I just wanted to swear. I wanted to say all those nasty words. That was it: I want to swear on television!.
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
During the rehearsal process I got thrown off the horse.
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'm fortunate that I've been an athlete, my whole life, and I work out like a crazy person.
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
I have so many people come up to me, 20-some years later, and saying, I loved you in Jawbreaker!.
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 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
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.
