It's a roll of the dice when you're a first time director so I prefer to work with people that know more than I do, but that happens less and less as you get older.

More quotes by 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
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
I want every movie to be like a big family and a great adventure.
Virginia Madsen
Sadly, I really want to be Batman ... and I just never will be.
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've made more movies than anybody now.
Virginia Madsen
The actor side of me loves to get dressed up and I feel like Cinderella when I'm in diamonds.
Virginia Madsen
Men, we don't need you in shining armor. We just need you a little bit brave, just a little bit brave.
Virginia Madsen
I love when I get to play these characters that are bigger than life. There are roles in animation that I never get to do in real life - and it appeals to my ego as an actor to play the Queen of Everything. I admit it.
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
It would be good if you opened your heart to the fullness of time and spirit.
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
I have to read comic books all first, because now when you get into graphic novels, they are definitely in deep graphic.
Virginia Madsen
I spend a lot of time at my son’s school and I really wanted to do a movie that the kids could see. The good thing about being my age and not having to be the ingenue anymore is that I get to be a mom. I get to have kids in my movies.
Virginia Madsen
When you're the ingénue no one is really interested in you for that.
Virginia Madsen
I am a proud mother - that's another reason I love doing any kind of animation. When my son was growing up, if he was watching something animated and I was in it, that was way cooler to him than seeing me in a movie.
Virginia Madsen
When I was growing up, the really, really cool super heroes were all male - so I wanted to be them.
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
Do something good for yourself today. You matter.
