Was action something you were always interested in doing when you got into acting?
Oh, absolutely not. Not at all. It’s something that I enjoyed doing because I like to challenge myself.
If it’s anything challenging, I like it and it’s quite challenging and demanding to do action scenes.
So I enjoyed doing it but it’s definitely not something that I wanted to do. I liked the other aspects of acting
which is getting in someone’s skin, getting to understand how emotionally someone functions. All those
aspects were what I really enjoy. The good thing about Elektra is she has both. I could enjoy the fighting
because that’s part of her character. She’s a very well trained killer. I got to do all that but she’s also a very complex
character. This is really what I enjoyed doing with this character, just to explore and try to understand her.
Trying to understand her was just a fun, fun task for me because she is hard to get. She is really hard to understand.






[on Elektra] I didn’t want her just to be this badass ninja, this badass killer.
She fights this bond and this love she has for Matthew and that’s her weakness.
She’s a woman torn between two poles of her personality. She’s also capable of
love and she’s capable of good and she’s always torn between these two poles.
And that’s the Elektra I tried to portray, one that’s always in the grey.
She is a tortured soul.
