Playing roles that are intense and damaged has always come more easily to me than doing comedies or lighter stuff - that would be taking a huge risk for me.
My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I`m not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role, but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.
Lately I did a film called All I Want for Christmas and it was well received. This gave me a new point of view and a new respect for my work as an actress.
It`s not that I don`t want to become famous or that I`m obsessed by my work as an actress, but it`s all about not limiting myself, such as putting myself in a little jail that I can escape from.
Plus, doing a zombie movie is quite liberating. It`s fun not to take myself seriously all the time.
