It got to the point where if there was a manipulative femme fatale who was going to be seducing the leading man, it was ‘Call Natalie Dormer.’ Every actor, wherever they are on the hierarchy, get put in a box to a certain extent. And it’s wonderful when people like Matthew McConaughey can turn around and go: ‘You thought I was this, but look what I can do!’ You have to start challenging people’s perceptions of you, and the perceptions you have of yourself, really.

For me, it’s not necessarily interesting to play a strong, fearless woman. It’s interesting to play a woman who is terrified and then overcomes that fear. It’s about the journey. Courage is not the absence of fear, it’s overcoming it.

I don’t take the red carpet seriously. Actors are not models. We have to be real people and look quirky and imperfect. Telling stories is a celebration of human nature, which means you’re not perfect inside or outside.
