For me, comedians are like the epitome for everything great, and they terrify me. I just want to be them. I want to be like them.

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.

Those darker sides, the things that we don't want to admit about ourselves - that's what excites me.
Tatiana Maslany

I think the idea of family and protecting the family is something that ties a lot of these women together.

How you go about moving within the world you live in says so much about who you are.

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.

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.

My favorite actor on the planet is Gena Rowlands and she plays women who, to me, somehow defy gender. They are women, they are feminine, they are masculine, they are everything. There's something exciting about that. I don't know how to articulate it exactly. I guess it's busting out of the archetypes a little bit and not feeling restricted.

Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.

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.

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.

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.

I'm super sad to have it finish because it's been such a dream job, but it's nice to know there's a conclusion.

Film has always been where my heart is.

I'm a huge 'Futurama' fan, so that's my closest sci-fi tendency.

Image
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.

Sex isn't hard, but intimacy is terrifying.
Tatiana Maslany
Image
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.

I'm so inspired and stimulated by the work that it doesn't ever feel like work.

Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don't let somebody else tell you who you are.
