More quotes by Rachel McAdams
A friend of mine had this great theory about the Teletubbies, that it's preparing us for being mindless. And getting us ready for living in an underground world. That's why the scenery is so flat.
Rachel McAdams
I did get to shadow some amazing brain surgeons, a female brain surgeon in Toronto, another surgeon in London. And then we had a surgeon onset [of Doctor Strange] every day. So and he taught me to do sutures and was practicing on turkey breasts, raw turkey breasts.
Rachel McAdams
I do think having a mother as a nurse who's a very kind of compass - , she's so compassionate and she really unfortunately would take her work home with her sometimes.
Rachel McAdams
I have a certain curiosity for life that drives me and propels me forward.
Rachel McAdams
I learn that you can work really hard and still have a great time. That is part of Russell Crowe philosophy.
Rachel McAdams
Running through airports with pounds of luggage - that's a good workout.
Rachel McAdams
[On Doctor Strange] just from costumes to everything was just so well done, so beautifully thought through and well-crafted. And so - , and they didn't even make me pretend that much with green screen.
Rachel McAdams
I really like having a life outside work. I sometimes wish I did more career stuff and was in that Hollywood scene a bit more. But Toronto's my home.
Rachel McAdams
You know, I have some issues. But I just love to play different characters all the time, and I try not to repeat myself too much.
Rachel McAdams
The Washington Post was interesting because it's such a politically minded newspaper.
Rachel McAdams
Often with film, I find that you're just really getting to know a person. They're just starting to sink in, and then you wrap the film.
Rachel McAdams
I've been given lots of great advice, in my life. As an actor, just being as honest and as present as you can be.
Rachel McAdams
The craziest thing I've ever done to get a guy's attention? I admit I stalked someone. I showed up at a restaurant where I knew the guy worked, and we were actually good friends and had lost touch, and I pretended that I didn't know he worked there.
Rachel McAdams
I think they [Judy Blume comics] are so different from the Dr. Strange ones are so different from the other, from the other comics which is nice.
Rachel McAdams
I'm waiting for them to make 'Thundercats'. I would love to be Cheetara.
Rachel McAdams
I think love is the through line and it's universal and it doesn't matter what period of time, time or place, or people, that's something we all connect to. That's the thin thread that I think keeps it altogether.
Rachel McAdams
I hadn't read the Dr. Strange comics growing up.
Rachel McAdams
I'm very silly as a person, but quality silliness on-screen has more of an art to it. Harrison Ford, whom I was in Morning Glory with, has mastered that dry funny better than anyone.
Rachel McAdams
I'm a little funny when it comes to blood and guts and stuff like that.
Rachel McAdams
During a movie, chemistry is so important, and yet they just assume actors can fake their way through it. That doesn't always work.
