You Americans, you have no idea how much your stuff infiltrates the rest of the world!

I've always been attracted to action stuff.

You look at women like Lena Dunham, you look at how women are kind of crafting their own space on the screen. I want to add to that.

I got an M.F.A. in acting from NYU, and part of our training is to learn how to use swords in combat situations in a performance and Shakespeare plays where you have to fight.

I always used to say hybrids would rule the world - people who have an understanding of many cultures and can relate to them with ease. And then along came Obama.

So from an actor's perspective, you really have no idea how you're acting.
