I think a lot of fans immediately go, 'ugggh' when they hear that someone is doing a prequel or a remake, they sort of assume the worst sometimes.

More quotes by Mary Elizabeth Winstead
You don't have to play masculine to be a strong woman.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I'm a fan of films in general I mean, I don't think I've ever considered myself specifically a horror fan even though I do enjoy horror films, find them really entertaining.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I don't think people understand when you say you are making a micro-budget film that you are getting paid no money.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I feel like most horror films are made for teenagers about teenagers. I've done a couple of those horror films. There's nothing wrong with that but the older I get the more I starve for more adult material.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I'm a huge Paul Thomas Anderson fan.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
For any addict, when you get sober, life becomes more challenging, in some ways, because all of your problems become very clear and you have to deal with your pain. You can't just drink and forget about it and pretend it doesn't exist. You have to actually face it, head on.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
Which is so important, I mean, that's what's so great about the books, is, you know, those two worlds are sort of, the slacker world of just comedy and laziness and then this crazy, over the top action, supernatural world, and you know, combined.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I do want to direct, eventually. I don't know if it will be a short film or a music video or a feature, but I know that I want to at least try it and see.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I think thinking about becoming an adult, and having to face up to your problems and face up to your insecurities, is difficult for everybody.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I think for most actors, because we sort of have to tell ourselves this, we always say, 'Oh, it doesn't mean anything to win an Oscar!' It certainly isn't a goal that you want to set yourself up for, because then you're just setting yourself up for disaster. Because how many people actually win an Oscar?
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I can remember when Pulp Fiction came out. I was, like, 10 years old. But I remember the impact that it had.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
You have to believe that it is what you want to do with your life and you have to be dedicated to it.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
So I get all the references and I totally get the humor and it's really fun. This - it's kind of a mash up of so many different genres and things that kind of, sort of are just part of youth culture right now. Music and action and video games, and it's kind of amazing to see it all piled into one film.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
If you let too many cooks in the kitchen it could cloud your vision of what you want to do.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I found my way into the indie world a bit late in my career, but it was something that I was really passionate about doing.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I've never worn incredible clothes - I'm not used to playing someone so put together and fashionable.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
You do sometimes have to work on things where you love the cast and you love the filmmaker, and the role might not be great but it's fun. I'm totally down to do those things, and will continue to do those things, as well, but it at least has to be peppered with roles that are really interesting and that are hard.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I think since I'm not particularly well-known as myself, it's funny all the different perceptions people have of me. Like, if someone's only seen me in 'Death Proof,' they think I'm sort of a ditzy girl who says stupid things and wears revealing outfits all the time.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I'm a really cautious person, so I don't let myself get into near-death experiences. I'm not into the idea of skydiving or anything.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I think there need to be more female action heroines out there that are intelligent and not overly masculine and things like that so Id love to find - and real too. Not necessarily the superhero perfect archetype of what an action hero is represented as a lot of times. I would love to find that kind of action heroine role to play.
