I like working with Kenneth Branagh.
I have seen 'Thor', yeah. It's fantastic. Being that close to something, it's often pretty hard to watch yourself, but the film in so many ways is so impressive that I was swept along with it like an audience member, and that's a pretty good sign.
When I was in 8th grade, I saw Branagh's 'Henry V' in the Paris Theater, and it changed my life.
Kenneth Branagh has his stamp all over 'Thor.'
I liked the fact that 'My Week With Marilyn' wasn't a biopic.
People talk a lot about, 'You're a Disney princess! You're Cinderella!' and this and that. But for me, it's all about the fact that I worked with Cate Blanchett and was directed by Kenneth Branagh. That's the 'Cinderella' story for me.
I thought 'Thor' would just be fun.
Kenneth Branagh is one of the funniest directors on the set. You laugh a lot. He's very skillful.
I knew it was called 'Dunkirk,' Christopher Nolan was directing it, and it was a war film. That was all anyone knew.
Acting's incredibly enjoyable, but sometimes it doesn't feel quite enough. I've also written a script about the life of Eleanor of Aquitaine. This will make me sound like a female Kenneth Branagh, but I can't think of anything nicer than directing myself from a script I wrote.
I only did 'Thor' because it was Kenneth Branagh directing, but I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would.
British people might wonder 'What the hell is Kenneth Branagh doing directing 'Thor?' but the person asking that the most was Kenneth Branagh. I think he was more surprised than anyone else to find himself doing this kind of film.
Doing Shakespeare on stage with Kenneth Branagh, I don't think it gets better than that.
Kenneth Branagh. There was a time in my life when people would tell me constantly that I look like him. I could do a lot worse than that.
I am pretty sure when Kenneth Branagh came up for 'Thor,' nobody at Marvel thought, 'Yes, that Kenneth Branagh is masculine enough to do action: just look at 'Henry V' and 'The Magic Flute.''
