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

In studio films, everything has to be boxed in, everybody needs to know beforehand - this is comedy, this is sci-fi, this is drama - and what's the point of independent film if you don't get to experiment?
Famke Janssen -
You don't ever know with films. You just hope for the best, but sometimes it's a bit of a crapshoot.
Famke Janssen -
I enrolled in an acting workshop and my first acting role was on the TV soap opera 'Melrose Place.'
Famke Janssen -
I personally like to do independent films.
Famke Janssen -
I have a friend in New York who's a stylist and I went over to her place because she's got a lot of clothes. I basically ended up wearing most of it. So it's all stuff that I brought over.
Famke Janssen -
We've always been ready for female superheroes. Because women want to be them and men want to do them.

-
I keep pushing buttons and trying to grow as a person and as a filmmaker.
Famke Janssen -
I'm trying to fight typecasting as hard as I can, while I have time.
Famke Janssen -
Netflix is something I watch.
Famke Janssen -
I don't watch TV.
Famke Janssen -
The great thing I think when you do independents is that people are really there for the same reason. They're not there because they got a lot of money and they want to just go home and get it over with. They're there because they believe in the script or the director or the cast or whatever it is, and they want to make it work.
Famke Janssen -
I've lived in New York for a really long time.

Film has played such a big part in my life, in my impressions of the United States.
Famke Janssen -
When someone holds a knife to your throat it's easy to be scared. It's not hard to imagine what it would be like.
Famke Janssen -
If you do well as an actor, a good director will pick up on it, and keep it in the film.
Famke Janssen -
I started as a model in Holland and Chanel took me to New York when I was 19, after which I decided to stay.
Famke Janssen -
Robert De Niro... It seemed like a pretty cool thing to do to put his name on my resume next.
Famke Janssen -
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.
Famke Janssen
-
I like the work that I get to do.
Famke Janssen -
I think every movie is its own little world, and a director certainly sets the tone.
Famke Janssen -
During my first visit, I was really struck by how deeply religious many Oklahomans are. It is a very conservative state and as somebody who grew up in a very liberal country, it was jarring to me at first.
Famke Janssen -
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.
