With every project you do, you bring out a part of yourself, and it seems to be quite a good way of expanding a person.

No one is more enslaved than a slave who doesn't think they're enslaved.

I'm surprised there aren't more celebrities in burkhas.

I still feel like the person who shouldn't be doing this and everyone is acting around me as if I'm a badass all the time. And this still feels like a stretch. I realize this is something that is incredible. I get to do this and I get wonderful teachers to help me and it's amazing.

Yes, because it's Len's obsession with practical. I've never really had that experience that I hear people having of being on an empty soundstage painted green talking to a tennis ball on a stick.

When I first started working, I was very aware of the fact that I'd been to university and studied Russian and French and not acting. So when I started working, I'd started working quite young, I felt like it was important to treat myself kind of like an apprentice and do as many different types of things as I could.

I don't have a big career plan. I just like to see how things come out, and I just try to keep going in different directions.

I remember when I did 'Click' and I'd see Adam Sandler's fan base. He's the guy that people feel that he's their best friend, so he's walking down the street and people sort of high five him and want to tell him a joke or invite him to come home and have a sandwich with them.

I have a husband who literally worships me. And cleans the house. And blow-dries my daughter's hair.

The hover cars were terrifying. I manage to make it even more terrifying by having food poisoning on that day as well. Hover cars you can't get out of very easily or quickly, so that held a whole extra element of risk for me.

I'm a fan of action movies.

I was a very difficult child, and the time I spent reading was about the only peace I gave my mother.

When I was pregnant, everyone told me you're going to be one of those women with a little football in front. And then this...thing, this Scooby-Doo monster belly arrived. I gained 65 pounds. Every single part of my body was thicker - even my scalp! But that's the advantage of being young - it went right back.

If I ever have sex with someone I might be able to develop a sense of humor.

Were I not married to the director, I'm not sure I'd know anything about the 'Underworld' sequel.

I would say probably my least favorite costume ever was in 'Van Helsing.' That was a huge pain because it had thigh-high boots with 30 buckles on them that had to be done up individually.

I think I like playing the bad girl. I like complicated. I like flawed, messed up complicated. It's more interesting.

I'm attracted to playing things that I find difficult, just because it's a journey that is much more interesting.

When [Len Wiseman and I] first met, I was a huge fan of the 'Alien' movies. I was a huge 'Die Hard' fan until it ate my husband for two years. We sit and watch movies all the time. One of my favorite movies is 'Dog's Day Afternoon.' Len loves that movie.

Apparently, I'm very good at firing a gun without blinking, which is unusual. That's why so many action characters have to wear sunglasses during shoot-out scenes. That's my party trick.

Someone once said that you can make the choice between getting old and getting creepy, and I think getting old is the way to go.
