I try to keep things as varied as possible in my career, and after playing something as fun and over the top as Maryann on 'True Blood,' I wanted to find something antithetical to that. Michelle Forbes antitheticalbloodcareer Change image and share on social
I was deliciously happy filming 'True Blood.' I even kept all the scripts in my office, which I never do with any script. Although I did shred them all in one go when the series finished; it seemed like a ritual, somehow. Michelle Forbes blooddeliciouslyfilm share on social
One of my last few vices is coffee, but with a spot of almond or soymilk, it's never tasted better! Michelle Forbes almondcoffeesoymilk Change image and share on social
For whatever reason, every project I do becomes sort of a cult, or a cultish show, you know, like 'Battlestar,' or even a film I did years ago, 'Kalifornia,' people refer to it as a cult film. Michelle Forbes agobattlestarcult Change image and share on social
I've been watching 'Game of Thrones,' and I can't wait for 'Bored to Death' to come back, it's one of my faves. Michelle Forbes backboredeath Change image and share on social
I've never had a plan. You look for different actors you want to work with or different subjects you want to explore, or sometimes it's just a momentary fancy. Michelle Forbes actorexplorefancy Change image and share on social
At one point I had a stretch where it was working on 'In Treatment,' then 'True Blood,' then 'Durham County,' then 'True Blood,' then 'In Treatment' again. If I didn't have that little dose of 'True Blood' in the middle, I might have lost my mind. Michelle Forbes bloodcountydose share on social
When I did 'Battlestar Galactica' it was the first time I really understood science fiction. That was a very political drama, but set in spaceships so people didn't really take it seriously. But some really fascinating things were explored in that. Michelle Forbes battlestardramaexplore share on social
When I do watch shows, or projects that I've been a part of, I'm pretty good at watching them objectively. And that's mostly because I want to see how it came out overall, what the overall story was and how it came together visually, what my mates were doing. Michelle Forbes goodhavemate share on social
In this age of vampires, what I love about 'True Blood' the most is that it's a post-modern take on it. 'Sookie Stackhouse' series author Charlaine Harris and 'True Blood' creator Alan Ball turned that whole mythology upside-down... It's not just about vampires. It's about a lot of different things.
