In Particular, For My Character, Celeste [in

Once I Start Putting All My Little Insecurities In My Mind, I'm Not Actually Acting. Then It's About Me - And It Should Never Be About Me. It Should Be About The Character.

Sometimes As An Actor You're Struggling To Make Things Work. That Was Never The Case For Me With [big Little Lies Script]. It Just Kind Of Flowed Out.

I Always Say, When I Work With Younger Actresses, "i'm Here." Reese Says It, Too: "we've Lived It. We Know Things. So If There's Anything You Want To Know." I'm Careful Not To Be The Preacher, Like, "now, Listen To Me!" But I Do Want To Be Available. Even In Terms Of Things Like Finances - Where Do You Learn That, If You Don't Have People You Can Ask, "hey, Can I Ask You A Question?"

I Didn't Do So Well In The Academic World, So I Think The Only Way I Could Express Myself Was Through Visual Art - Anything I Could Get My Hands On, Whether It Was Glassblowing, Sculpture, Painting, Or Photography. I Always Wanted To Be A Painter. Or A Farmer.

Refuse To Let Your Circumstances Make You Bitter. Do What You Must To Make Them Better.
