I'm European, small, dainty - but I actually consider myself more of a tomboy.

I consider myself more a European director who is from Iceland than an Icelandic director.

I made a French film called 'Merry Christmas' which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece.

I don't want to let my life as a woman pass me by. There's a time to work, there's a time to be young and crazy, and there should be a time to enjoy motherhood. I'm actually looking forward to that.

I like the idea of accessibility, coming from a lower-middle-class background myself, I feel like beauty and products should be accessible to all women over the world.

With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be.
