Becoming a mother is the best thing that has ever happened to me, I am happy to once again be a part of National Adoption Day.

Being an actor/ writer is a responsibility and a burden and a gift. The responsibility to me is that you can’t just wait to be cast into something and then you create the role. You almost have a voice inside of you telling you what you might want to play and be able to play. It’s hard, but once that thing comes out of the printer and you hold those warm pages to your cheek it’s great. It’s a huge sense of accomplishment.

I am not anti-man. I am married to a man… I have a father and a brother… I love men. But there is something really lacking when Cake is nominated. How does Julianne Moore win for Best Actress but her film isn’t nominated for Best Screenplay? How does Gone Girl become such a critically-acclaimed and box-office hit but its scriptwriter, Gillian Flynn, isn’t nominated for Best screenplay. It’s disgusting!

I feel the same way when I meet somebody in Los Angeles, because I’m from Winnipeg. I’m just a very ordinary girl that something extraordinary happened to. So, I’ll go to an event and, say, stand next to Charlize Theron and be like, “Oh my God! This is incredible!” And then you get to talk to her and you find out she’s a real person. She’s a mom and very interesting. I’m constantly thunderstruck by people that I admire.
