▌In Their Words

Joshua Jackson: I can’t show off my left hand now, because it’s been signed by Anna Torv.
Anna Torv: Unbelievable. He just threw me under the bus.
Jackson: Can’t take her anywhere.
Interviewer: What did you do to him?
Jackson: She marked me.
Torv: It’s just a little bit of pen. He really marked me.
Jackson: That was art! Okay?! This is just random squiggles! - Josh/Anna


Cutest thing…my first day with Anna, five days into the show…’Oh my god it’s snowing out! This is incredible!
I’ve never seen snowfall!’ Flash forward 37 days…’Oh my god I’ve gotta’ get out of this country.
Please I don’t know if I can do this anymore. This is too much. How does everyone go outside and not starve to death in the winter?"- Josh


It was freezing. It was minus 35° and so windy. Josh keeps laughing ‘cause there’s this scene with the doctor where she comes out
of the prison and he says ‘Excuse me, would you mind coming
back inside with me?’ and I have to say ‘N…why would I wanna do that?’
…”When it was insane, you couldn’t see anything, I couldn’t feel my face. I’ve…I have never been so cold. - Anna


Josh: Anna gets all the cool Spider-Man stuff. I just do a lot of running. I’m chasing and she’s up on the rooftop
jumping from building to building looking much more badass than me.
Anna: Well, I’m the Agent. That’s fair. [laughs] - Josh/Anna

I think Josh is extremely excited, he gets to hold a gun in this episode and be like the tough guy. - Anna

Kritstin: For people at home, give us just one good reason to watch.
Josh: Anna Torv.
Kristin: Yes Anna, please..
Josh: No, no! Anna Torv, that’s the reason! - Josh

Josh is a wonderful sparring partner [on Fringe]. He has such intense focus, but he's irreverent and fun too.
What old-school charm and charisma! - Anna


Anna Torv: I remember a panel ages ago...and I´m quoting you (looks at Josh), you said, and I think it´s such a
beautiful quote, you said "I would rather strive for the best and not quite get there than strive for mediocrity and get..."
Joshua :...and achieve it.
Anna Torv: I think it´s so beautiful...
Joshua: Wow, I had a very insightful moment a couple of years ago! It´s true...
Anna: It´s a beautiful quote. I remember that because it is.
Joshua: Thank you. - Josh/Anna


Our writers require us to be always "on book," so there’s no improvisation, we always say what we’ve been given,
but I would play exactly what was on the page, you know, like a good girl.
And then I started to realize this is like a call and response, and you can actually go against what’s been written
and start to shape your character a little bit more. The more I watched John Noble
or Joshua [Jackson], who really started to carve and push their character in a direction they
wanted them to go, that’s when I sort of realized you can do that without
changing the dialogue, and I’ve slowly learned that lesson. - Anna


They freaked out when I had to do some of the driving though, because I’m from Australia
and we drive on the other side of the street. Josh [Joshua Jackson] is a little bit
scared as I’m looking over the wrong shoulder reversing back. - Anna


She Knocks That Out of The Park. - Josh on Anna’s performance in their last scene in Marionette.


It’s really impressive what Anna’s done with that Olivia/BOlivia doppelgänger in the same scene.
Giving all credit to Anna for what she’s done with the versions of Olivia and also the Bell voice,
like super creepy- when she first did that, we were doing the scene and she
arched the eyebrows and I was like ‘I gotta get out of here.’ - Josh

Title suggestions for "my" Torvson:

Why no new photoshoots? B/c they're too hot to handle. ( )

Or a more appropriate ones:

Because they admire and respect each other as actors
Because they tell cute stories about each other
Because we know they are secret PO shippers

[sofiab]

You guys decide your favorite title.

Oh no it's nothing like that! Everyone can make suggestions. Feel free to post your title suggestions next time.

Well Mary, that's the only reasoning that makes sense as to the lack of Torvson photoshoots.

[sofiab]

Having something to say is overrated.
