More quotes by Tatiana Maslany
I'm incredibly close to my family. I have two younger brothers, they're both artists and actors and their work and the way they see the world inspires me. We've been making films together since we were kids, in our backyard.
Tatiana Maslany
I would love to work with Gena Rowlands. I just don't know in what capacity. I'd play her daughter or granddaughter, or whatever. I would just love to work with her, in whatever capacity.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm fascinated with psychology, and with why a person walks the way they walk or why they walk into a room the way they do or why we are the way we are, and it's not exclusive to the psychology of a character.
Tatiana Maslany
I worked with dance a lot, for each character - different ways I could move my body, different music. It's the most fun thing in the world, because I love each and every one of the characters and I'd be happy just to play one of them, but the fact that I get to play upwards of six, seven, eight or whatever, it's a total dream.
Tatiana Maslany
Those darker sides, the things that we don't want to admit about ourselves - that's what excites me.
Tatiana Maslany
I think the improv also helps with the imagination of dealing this person across from me who's not physically there. When you do an improv scene, you're usually working on a blank stage and creating the props and creating the environment.
Tatiana Maslany
Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.
Tatiana Maslany
All the foundation work you plant in the early seasons pay off in stronger storylines deep into our seasons. I think that only aids in performance.
Tatiana Maslany
Going back is a nice way to give definition to each of the characters because they are so vastly different. I would never want them to get blended together.
Tatiana Maslany
There's something about music that makes me feel like a different person, that feels like an escape.
Tatiana Maslany
I started out as a dancer as a kid I've been dancing since I was 4. So performing was always part of what I was. I don't know if it I enjoyed the response I got from people or if I liked having an audience, but there's something in me that wanted to perform.
Tatiana Maslany
I was in a Nativity play as a kid. Back then, I played the donkey.
Tatiana Maslany
I find comedy to be really scary, because it can go so wrong so easily, and the margin for error is so huge - and I guess that's what makes it funny, that tension.
Tatiana Maslany
It's wild to be seen differently and have more visibility, but it's rewarding.
Tatiana Maslany
Sex isn't hard, but intimacy is terrifying.
Tatiana Maslany
You learn from the actors that you're working with. I've taken a lot from all of them.
Tatiana Maslany
My brothers are so much a part of who I am, and such a large part of my heart and my drive. I've never had a kid, but I understand that whole, I would kill for my family kind of thing. I understood it, it resonated with me. It's a very primal, animal thing that you feel for your family.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm a huge 'Futurama' fan, so that's my closest sci-fi tendency.
Tatiana Maslany
Have fun, be yourself, enjoy life and stay positive.
Tatiana Maslany
I've worked on shows where the lead actor doesn't know their lines, doesn't care, and it affects everybody - the crew, the director, the other actors. It's definitely a responsibility.
