My life is a performance for which I was never given any chance to rehearse.
In TV, it is important to get everything on film as fast as possible. You rehearse every day of the week, and each day, the performance may be changed. The process is more result-oriented than in the movies. It's more about working quickly.
I don't rehearse a lot. I try to keep it organic. Even in movies, the less I rehearse, the better I am.
