Being in the desert was brilliant and it was hard.

I want variety. I want versatility. Otherwise, I'm wasting the opportunity of being an actor, which is all about variation and change.

I've never had a game plan. It's just if something comes along and it feels right in the moment.

After 'Muriel's Wedding,' I first went to America, and I was sent all these scripts about fat girls overcoming hurdles. Something in me knew not to go down that road, even if it was a good script.

I love holidays. It's such a wonderful time for the whole family to be together and not have to worry about schedules and that kind of thing.

The one thing I want to do - and I am doing - is starting my own production company, for me to produce and direct in the future. Have a bit more say and control - become the storyteller more than just the character. I want to choose the story, plant the seed, and watch it grow. I just want to have a bit more involvement.
