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.

More quotes by Kate Beckinsale
I find a lot of things kind of funny and I often say what's on my mind, and then get nine texts from all my friends going, 'What's the matter with you?' But I haven't ever made a big attempt to have any particular image. And I don't really worry about it. If it's funny, I don't care.
Kate Beckinsale
It's wonderful to have the most important thing in the world there first thing in the morning. And especially in this business, where the opportunity to think everything is about you is there every day, now I really know that it isn't all about me.
Kate Beckinsale
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.
Kate Beckinsale
Always argue over text so other people aren't embarrassed!
Kate Beckinsale
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.
Kate Beckinsale
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.
Kate Beckinsale
I feel like I've done a bunch of period stuff and then a bunch of romantic comedies.
Kate Beckinsale
I'm surprised there aren't more celebrities in burkhas.
Kate Beckinsale
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.
Kate Beckinsale
I'm attracted to playing things that I find difficult, just because it's a journey that is much more interesting.
Kate Beckinsale
I can't tell you how many times I've gone to present at the Golden Globes, come home, whipped the dress off and read to my daughter wearing gazillion-dollar earrings. That's how it goes in my house, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Kate Beckinsale
My daughter comes with me everywhere. I don't leave her behind. But it is hard. I mean, I think any working mother will tell you that what kind of falls by the wayside, you know, are the hours of sleep that you wish you had, and all that. I feel incredibly lucky and blessed, but I do sometimes feel like that exorcist lady!
Kate Beckinsale
What's considered ideal in Hollywood is completely different than anywhere else in the world. I don't think you can aspire to it, nor can I. Everybody is retouched, stretched, lengthened, slimmed and trimmed. I could look at a picture of myself from the past and think, 'Why don't I look like that now?' It's because I never have!
Kate Beckinsale
I think actors always like to think they don't bring the character home, and then their family all laugh and tell you otherwise.

No one is more enslaved than a slave who doesn't think they're enslaved.
Kate Beckinsale
People keep asking me about it but I don't want to be famous for being a former anorexic.
Kate Beckinsale
It is very different. I mean, it was immediately different because it's a human being and it's not a vampire and it's not fighting monsters. This isn't the kind of movie that's got the comic book style of fighting to it. It was a bit more gritty.
Kate Beckinsale
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.
Kate Beckinsale
I find American behaviour...odd
Kate Beckinsale
I am used to wearing corsets. Even when I was first starting out it was either Shakespeare or Chekov. Everything that I was doing involved corsets. I guess I am just not destined to breathe that deeply.
