More quotes by 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 would love to re-visit Darla. I miss her. I really do.
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
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
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
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
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
I love the fans of genre. Genre fans are the best fans. They're loyal, they're dedicated, and they're passionate about the projects. They get it on a cerebral level. Being a part of that culture and that world... It's very gratifying and very fulfilling.
Julie Benz
I'm fortunate that I've been an athlete, my whole life, and I work out like a crazy person.
Julie Benz
During the rehearsal process I got thrown off the horse.
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
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 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 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've had a career where I've bounced around a lot between different genres, and I feel very lucky and very blessed that that's happened to me.
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
I loved playing Darla.
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
[Filming Payne] that was also the first time I worked with JoBeth Williams, which was also a case of not being the last time!
Julie Benz
