Anna Friel

I've always chosen incredibly different roles and things that are quite offbeat. That way you're not limited.

We will spend more time in America, we're going to get a place in LA as hotels aren't great for the baby.

You can see when an actor gets bored: Their eyes go dead. I promised myself I'd never let that happen. If it does, I'll go and live on a desert island for a year.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

Anna Deavere Smith's new one-woman show bills itself as being about health care, but the truth is that 'Let Me Down Easy' is mostly about the grimmer subject of death and dying.

I knew I wanted to be an actress as soon as I popped out.
