I feel better in my mind when I work out. It makes everything better.
Keri Russell
Image
Acting is a strange profession, and, yes, sometimes I struggle with its worth, its value in the world.

Image
I love Cheryl [Hines] so much and had so much fun with her. Off set we got on so well and would tell stories.

I tend to come home and eat a bowl of cereal. I'm not thinking about baking a pie when I'm off work.
Keri Russell
Image
With a pie, the crust is a real delicacy. It's very hard to get it just right because it's got to be cold and just the right consistency. There's a whole art to it and I haven't learned how to do it [filming in Waitress].There's not a lot of time for cooking, especially when you're shooting nights or working until 11pm.

When you are 16 you are supposed to be doing cool things, like sneaking alcohol, not living in Disney World and doing skits about mice.

That's interesting to hear you say that because watching it [the Waitress] for the first time at Sundance was fascinating - it was so different from the experience of making it.
Keri Russell

I think the first time I realized I was actually acting was during Felicity. Before that, I was just going along for the ride.

Dance has helped me with everything. It was a great foundation for discipline, hard work and, unfortunately, the ever-elusive idea of perfection. It lends itself easily to fight choreography, because that's what it really is. Choreography. And knowing how to move with someone.

I would not let my children act when they are young!

[Adrienne Shelly] explain exactly what she was looking for. This was her movie [Waitress].She also wrote the songs that I sing in it. She wrote everything. She chose the colour of our outfits she designed the set of the diner. She was very, very involved at every level.

Who knows? Maybe years from now I'll be on a ranch in Colorado with 10 kids. The whole point of life is to experience a little bit of everything, and I think it's better when there are a few surprises thrown in.

When I was on the 'Mickey Mouse Club,' there was Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling and Christine Aguilera. But they were 12 and I was 17, so there was a bit of an age difference.
Keri Russell
Image
I don't think, as a 15-year-old, you're that conscious about a lifetime career. I didn't think: I'm a serious actor. I never studied acting or anything when I was that age.

I am crazy for dessert. I eat everything. No one should be denied anything... just don't eat the whole thing.

Image
You instantly become less selfish. You can't be the biggest person in the world anymore-they are. [Motherhood] really grounds you.
Keri Russell
Image
Really, it [the Waitress] was a story about believing in yourself ultimately, and caring enough about yourself to change your life.
Keri Russell
Image
I think I'm probably more passionate about acting now than when I was a kid. When I was young, I didn't know what I was doing.

People expect all women to react the same to pregnancy. But anyone who's been around pregnant women knows that it's not all cutesy and sweet. You spaz out and you're angry and you have tantrums.

I wish I had an invisible plane to take me home to Brooklyn, and I wouldn't have to ride the subway.
