I want to play characters that people relate to, characters that make different kinds of women in society feel represented.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I love Octavia Spencer. I love what she has to say as a human, and I love her career and the variety of characters she has played.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I've been lucky enough to play lots of real women - flawed, strong, independent women - and I love it.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
When you take on new roles that you don't feel comfortable with, that require you having skills you don't have, it's terrifying.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
'Priscilla' was made in 1994, and I think it was kind of daring for its time.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
That's one of the really cool things about being an actor. You get to explore all different parts of yourself.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
Kendrick is phenomenal. I've never tried and practiced a song that was as hard as when I practiced Kendrick's verse on 'Control.' He's a genius. I think that people do recognize it.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I would love to live in a world that is purely equal, where everyone has equal opportunities in every way. But that is not reality.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
People are always going to tell you to lose weight, and they tell you how they feel about it. There are pressures always to be a certain weight, but you have to be who you are. And if you want to change, you have got to do it for you and not for what people want you to be.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
People in big studios are like, 'People want to see other people who are skinny and happy and amazing.' But I think, nowadays, they are realising that what sells is real people from all different backgrounds, ethnicities, cultures and size. People want to see themselves represented on screen, and it's a real cool thing for everyone.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I think, in Australia, it's kind of a crazy thing to say, 'I want to be an actor.' People look at you weirdly. And when I said I was moving to L.A., I remember people saying, 'No, you shouldn't. You'll just come back disappointed.'
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I came out to America just before I turned 19, got my first audition, and booked it.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I've never actually played an Australian or worked in Australia. I really want to change that. I really want to work here - that would be great.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I wanted to act; wherever that was, I was happy. It just happened to be in America for me.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
There's a process: you audition, you get rejected, occasionally you get jobs, and it's exciting, but it's all little stepping stones.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I actually got a visa through a job that fell through, and it allowed me to move out here and start from scratch. There's more opportunity in America for girls like me, I guess.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
When I was in Australia, I had three different agents in three different years, and I didn't have one audition. They were good agents; I just never had one audition that was the right stuff.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I had a talk with Frances McDormand, actually, right before I did my first lead in a film, and that was really amazing.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I just got to do a challenging scene with Jennifer Aniston! That's unreal to me.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I remember loving 'Hairspray.' I was obsessed with it, and I didn't realise why. I felt so connected to it at the time because there wasn't any other kind of representation. So when it happens, you think, 'wow, I really connect with this movie. Why is that? Maybe it's because there's a girl like me up there on the screen.'
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
Everyone goes through that time in their life when they're trying to figure out who they are, find their own purpose and their own way.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
I love tinted moisturiser. I feel like I'm wearing nothing when I'm wearing it, which is how I like to feel, but it still provides me with coverage - and it's got sunscreen in it, so I'm not worried about getting burnt.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
'Harry Potter' is the first book that ever got me into reading. I had to read it in year 7, for school, and then I kept reading all of them.
Quote by -Danielle Macdonald
You just have to find the people that you love, and surround yourself with them.
