More quotes by Virginia Madsen
Dune was really my first Hollywood job. It was such a small part, but I opened the movie. I was about 19 years old and I had to make this speech, and I didn't understand most of the words because they were, you know, words from Dune.
Virginia Madsen
When you're the ingénue no one is really interested in you for that.
Virginia Madsen
I've spent the last few years just really actively pursuing comedy and that's something I always wanted to know how to do.
Virginia Madsen
It would be good if you opened your heart to the fullness of time and spirit.
Virginia Madsen
I'm a fan. I would have been a fan of Candyman even if I hadn't been in that movie. I'm a huge fan of Star Trek, which is why I was in Star Trek: Voyager - because I begged them to be a part of that lore.
Virginia Madsen
They were made up names in Dune that I didn't know how to pronounce, but I knew how I should sound because I was a sci-fi fan myself. I hadn't read the book, but I knew that I was the princess of the universe. I went in and sort of made her up, and David Lynch thought it matched and cast me.
Virginia Madsen
I really didn't like Batgirl. I was like, No, if I'm not gonna be Batman, I'm not gonna play. Maybe they could write an evil female super villain who takes over Batman, and nobody knows.
Virginia Madsen
I want every movie to be like a big family and a great adventure.
Virginia Madsen
I was always an actress, even as a little kid, and fantasy, horror, sci-fi stories are really all about playing make believe. I just never grew out of that.
Virginia Madsen
Voiceover work reminds me of old-time radio. When I was little I used to sneak and stay up at night and listen to Mystery Radio Theater - I loved all those old radio plays.
Virginia Madsen
You cannot believe how hard it is to try and raise money for a film. I did it for six years and it was such a failure.
Virginia Madsen
You know, we’re not on stage, we’re not doing a play, so we don’t have a relationship with the audience but going through that process and also just hearing how much people love the film, you feel like you do have a relationship with the audience.
Virginia Madsen
I have good genes. My father is Danish and my mother is Irish and Native American. They both have good skin.
Virginia Madsen
Our audience is all the girls who made Britney a huge star. Those are the girls who bought the book. I didn't read the book at first. I read the script just to see what I would think of the script and I really liked it.
Virginia Madsen
You can't not be into basketball and grow up in Chicago or live in L.A., because people are so fanatical about the teams. You know what's going on with the games even if you don't watch.
Virginia Madsen
Once your acting job is over, you just hope they have a good editor and they put together a good film.
Virginia Madsen
I have to read comic books all first, because now when you get into graphic novels, they are definitely in deep graphic.
Virginia Madsen
To me it meant, just looking at it from a Maya point of view, it meant that Paul Miles is always moving laterally in his life. And she just wants him to take a couple of steps forward, you know?
Virginia Madsen
When I was growing up, the really, really cool super heroes were all male - so I wanted to be them.
Virginia Madsen
Do something good for yourself today. You matter.
