I was thrown into this world of training, and weightlifting, and boxing, and cardio. It's amazing to feel your body being capable of that.

Women should not only be doing action on-screen but should be a part of every other aspect of filmmaking.

Young action heroines feel in service of male gaze, rather than being the full complexity of a human being.

I think the best privilege that I have in terms of having them as my parents was not just the doors that opened, but, I think, the stability to be graceful in the face of rejection, which is something that actors get every single day, and knowing it's not personal and not having that be part of your psyche.

I had a few months of physical prep where I was training six hours a day - I was doing an hour and a bit of yoga, I would do a couple hours of cardio and weight-lifting, and then I would do an hour or maybe two of martial arts training.

Everyone else went to drama school, and that teaches you how to dissociate from your character. I don't know any technique! I'm just acting by chance - and by connection.

What my parents have given me is what I would call a healthy entitlement.

The whole thing of sexually objectifying yourself is really demoralizing and degrading as a human being, and it's something that men have never had to do, and it's something that 'Hanna' has never had to do.

The hardest part is the nature of working in film and television; the hours are very tough.
