Having been a stunt girl for so long, a big part of my job was to not just make the other person look as cool as they could, but also to act as a support. My job was to make them as safe as they could be, so that they could be as explosive and as emotionally engaged as they could be.

I would find it more difficult if somebody else was doing the action.
Zoe Bell
My job has always been to not only make my character look like a badass but to also make the actor I am fighting opposite to be the character they need to be too.
Zoe Bell
Some of my best friends are like, I love that you are just the biggest pussy on the planet. And I have no problem with it at all, I love it. But it took a long time to understand that that's a part of my tapestry.
Zoe Bell
The thing that I come across is that people think that I might actually be super aggressive, want-to-fight type in real life. The irony is that that's just not true, at all.

I love the idea of doing comedy, whether it's action comedy or just straight comedy. It's such a big, new world for me that I'm starting to realize that any character that I relate to, in any way, shape or form, or that I have any appreciation for, given enough preparation, I can find that person.

I'm a poster child for feminism whether I like it or not, but I was resistant to the part of me that was a woman.
Zoe Bell
I'm certainly not on a mission to be taken seriously as a dramatic actress, any more than I am just to be able to get roles that are exciting and satisfying to me. If that means action, then that means action.

Actually my relationships with my girlfriends have become that much deeper and more profound, because I'm like, huh, yeah, I don't have to judge you, or you judge me. It was a lot of - I didn't want to be that crazy girlfriend.
