More quotes by Tatiana Maslany
I have trouble sleeping, at the end of the night. There's a lot of stimulus and my brain is processing a lot of different arcs and personalities. I'm always processing things, so I don't sleep.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm a huge 'Futurama' fan, so that's my closest sci-fi tendency.
Tatiana Maslany
We do long-form-style improv. Our focus was characters and telling a long arc story over about an hour and a half. It was closer to a one-act play than one-off sketches.
Tatiana Maslany
I was in a Nativity play as a kid. Back then, I played the donkey.
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 think the idea of family and protecting the family is something that ties a lot of these women together.
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.
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 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
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
As a kid, I wanted to be a boy because I equated that with strength. There's a problem with that. It's only growing into my own womanhood that I realize how warped that is that I was attributing strength to male qualities.
Tatiana Maslany
As artists, you always want to push yourself. There's always new territory.
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
How you go about moving within the world you live in says so much about who you are.
Tatiana Maslany
I see a lot of things I'm so excited and hopeful about film and TV in Canada. There's just a huge movement, I think, in seeking an identity as Canadians, and really forging it and really embracing all the parts of us as Canadians that come from such varied experiences and such varied cultures. And I think there are strong voices that come out.
Tatiana Maslany
I like 'Futurama.' That's kind of the only thing that's my sci-fi thing, although I was big into zombies for a time.
Tatiana Maslany
There's something really unique about Orphan Black is that it has a lot of female leads, so it's about a lot of women's stories, but it's not women’s stories in terms of trying to find a guy or keep a guy it's about entirely other things.
Tatiana Maslany
Those darker sides, the things that we don't want to admit about ourselves - that's what excites me.
Tatiana Maslany
For me, comedy literally is way more terrifying than doing drama, so it's always about stretching what I think I can do and putting myself out there in different context.
Tatiana Maslany
Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.
