I'm intrigued by the dark. Out of darkness comes creation.

My French is still good. That's a beautiful language and I'm happy to speak it.

I know Dark Phoenix is a huge part of the X-Men saga, so I'm assuming they're at least going to want to touch on it, but I don't know and I don't know whether I would want to be involved. That depends on many different things.

Robert De Niro... It seemed like a pretty cool thing to do to put his name on my resume next.

I enrolled in an acting workshop and my first acting role was on the TV soap opera 'Melrose Place.'

I love stories about two people who are doing illegal things, who we really enjoy watching despite the fact that we know they are doomed in some way.

As a European I had fit in almost seamlessly in New York for the last 25 years, but in Oklahoma I stood out like a sore thumb.

I look a certain way. I have a very specific kind of look.

I started as a model in Holland and Chanel took me to New York when I was 19, after which I decided to stay.

I love scary movies. The Shining and Don't Look Now are two of the best.

We've always been ready for female superheroes. Because women want to be them and men want to do them.

Just because you're of the same sex, what difference does it make? Get married to whomever you want.

I always feel like I want to do my career my own way. I never follow anybody's path, what they've done.

I want to work with great directors. I want to work on good material with good actors. I've probably done 20 movies at this point and a lot of independents. It's been an incredible ride and I love it and I'm just going to keep going and doing what I'm doing.

It's never been important to be a huge star or to have some breakout role. If you're the lead, you get a lot more screen time and you get a lot more chances to develop that character more thoroughly than you would if you do it in a little supporting part.

I try not to have high expectations of people because it just sets you up for disappointment, but it's great to work with actors who are that talented and accomplished.

Everybody gets typecast in movies, but you have to make wise choices. I'd say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look, so you have to fight that. If producers had their way, I'd only be in action films, but I'm interested in a more varied career than that.

I like to go from mainstream movies to more artsy films. I don't sign on for the money. Maybe I should, but I don't. There's always a good reason for doing something.

The only way to do is just to go for it, otherwise it ends up looking phoney.
