A Quote by Gabrielle Dennis
Sometimes I will read the whole script just to see what my character is doing, but I won't touch a script that I'm not in because it's just so much more exciting as a fan to me to watch the show as it's happening.

I just feel so passionate about it.
As we were negotiating, I didn't have a script. Once the deal is closed, they let you read the script.

I felt very privileged.
