Image
They didn't train me to be in the ring for five and a half hours punching air. So, it was hard, I had to get some body contact in there somewhere, it was mostly body shots and stuff. I had no clue, really.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I don't have an agent. The only work I get is through friendships that I've already built.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I had older brothers who would pick on me, and injustice always boiled my blood.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
The egos in this industry are incredibly vulnerable and everybody's afraid to wipe out. So everybody plays it safe and everybody tells everybody else how great they are.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I don't have much history - I've got Rosie Perez, Jennifer Lopez, Rita Moreno. That's it. That's the history of Latin women in Hollywood, really.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I've always been and will always be very private about my personal life. If anything ever goes public, it is by default, because I happened to be in a place where I was being watched. But for the most part, I honestly don't care what people think. I never have. If I did, I'd probably present myself a little more carefully.

I was born in Texas and I lived there 'till I was 8. Then I moved to the Dominican Republic with my mom, lived there for two years and forgot every word of English I knew.

Image
I'm like, Well, damn, that means that I have to carry a flag. I don't have the freedom to just do anything, because I have the political weight of having this last name and my heritage. It's not like I've transcended, Will Smith-style. It takes a lot to pull that off, to cross over, and transcend.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I think there are three types of actors. There are the ones that do the ego thing, which is I'm never going to look bad in a movie, ever. This is mostly the action film dudes, like, Nah, hell no. He ain't punchin' me! I'd whoop his ass!
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I just never felt like I belonged anywhere. I always had a stick with a little knapsack attached.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I'm always researching ancient religions, and I was also raised Jehovah's Witness, so that kind of scarred me for life.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
The only place that I'd be worried about being typecast is the independent film world.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I do what I want, when I want, how I want, and because of that, it has taken me so long to grow into an adult human being.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
When I was about, I'd say, 18 or 19 years old, I wanted to be a part of the CIA just because they know those intimate secrets... So I was just always into knowing. I like to know things.

Image
Growing up in Jersey City was interesting. I got to learn a lot about different cultures: I had Hindu friends, Middle Eastern friends, black friends, Spanish friends.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I've gone both ways. I do as I please. I am too f**king curious to sit here and not try when I can. Men are intriguing. So are chicks.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I don't like weak women and I don't find it interesting to play them. I'm inspired by them, when I see them in dramas, like with Natalie Portman, in almost every movie she's in. It's awesome that chicks can really go there, and it's beautiful to watch, but I don't think I'm interested, in any way, shape or form, in embodying those creatures.

The best part of making the movies... learning from the pros themselves.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
I've been part of really big things that are amazing, but I haven't taken on that responsibility yet. So I don't want to sell myself short by having a kid and then regret not doing what I set out to do.
Michelle Rodriguez
Image
Basically I was a rebel growing up. I got kicked out of six schools. But I don't think that it makes you less of an intellect. You know, if you ever crave knowledge, there's always a library.
