¡°It¡¯sa really humbling experience because, you know, I dream big. I dream big and ifI hadn¡¯t I wouldn¡¯t have gotten here at all. In my big dreams, I wanted to be asuperhero, and I wanted to work with the best directors in the world and havebig blockbuster movies and also movies that are art, that are made from a verydeep place with great directors¡±.
Shefurther added, ¡°And it didn¡¯t happen that much for me. So you fight for it inyour 20s, in your 30s and in your 40s you go, ¡®Oh, s*** them, they don¡¯t getit, they missed out. I would have been great in the art films and I would havebeen a great superhero (but) they didn¡¯t see it. S*** them, we¡¯re gonna dosomething else. ¡®Let¡¯s have a baby!¡¯."
Nowit is very humbling when in the middle of your 50s, a brilliant director givesyou the opportunity to do both: do something that comes from a deep place, thatis also a big blockbuster. I was wrong. Everything is possible. And it¡¯s ahumbling sensation¡±, concluded the 55-year-old actress.
