Quotes

Joanna Vanderham

  • You're on tenterhooks for the whole duration of filming these adrenaline-filled scenes, and your body doesn't know the difference between what's real and fake. When I act, I do everything in my power to believe the story is real, whether that's through the prep beforehand, the set that we're in or my imagination. I'm really bad at letting myself off the hook at the end of it all. I forget that I need to spend almost as much time afterwards cooling down and letting it all go.
  • What draws me to a role tends to be - do I think that this will challenge me? Have I done this before? What's becoming clearer to me as I spend more time in the business is that the best acting feels like it's you in that situation. Being brave enough not to hide behind your character, but let the reactions and emotions come from you and your own truth. At the end of the day, it's a gut instinct.
