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.

More quotes by 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
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 remember Gale Gordon was in the pilot [of Hi Honey, I'm Home], and it was one of my very first professional gigs without having an adult take me to the job.
Julie Benz
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
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
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
Having just read the script [Havenhurst] and then add having seen a ghost, I went to Andrew [Erin], and I was, like, Okay, I have to do this movie. I just have to! I don't know why, but I just have to do it. And I ended up getting the role.
Julie Benz
I've been an actor for 30 years, so I pretty much know how to do the basics of a fight without hurting anybody.
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
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
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.
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
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 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
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.
Julie Benz
I'm fortunate that I've been an athlete, my whole life, and I work out like a crazy person.
Julie Benz
I loved playing Darla.
Julie Benz
I love doing sitcoms and I love performing in front of a live audience, so [Payne] was a really fun experience.
