Quotes

“I fell in love with ‘Star Trek’ after J. J. Abrams’s movie. I’m so into that.”

“I started out as a dancer as a kid; I’ve been dancing since I was 4. So, performing was always part of what I was. I don’t know if it I enjoyed the response I got from people or if I liked having an audience, but there’s something in me that wanted to perform.”

“Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don’t let somebody else tell you who you are.”

“There’s so many different people that I’m fascinated by. Different kinds of characters that I meet in, like, everyday life, that I’m like, ‘I don’t know how you exist. Like, you’re so fascinating.'”

“It’s always been my dream to just continually do really cool indie movies, character-driven stuff. I would love to do more theater on a larger scale. I’m just excited for the next thing that comes along that I’m salivating over. I think a little more guerrilla would be really exciting to me.”

“Sex isn’t hard, but intimacy is terrifying.”

“I find comedy to be really scary, because it can go so wrong so easily, and the margin for error is so huge – and I guess that’s what makes it funny, that tension.”

“I was in a Nativity play as a kid. Back then, I played the donkey. Tatiana Maslany I’m a huge ‘Futurama’ fan, so that’s my closest sci-fi tendency.”

“I like challenging parts, something I haven’t done yet, something that scares me. There’s just a feeling I get when I read a script that I love, I feel an attachment to it, a yearning to play that character.”

“Auditions are not a natural environment, and you feel judged, even though everyone is just excited to find the right person.”

“I find comedy to be really scary, because it can go so wrong so easily, and the margin for error is so huge – and I guess that’s what makes it funny, that tension.”

“It’s always been my dream to just continually do really cool indie movies – character-driven stuff.”

“‘Orphan Black’ allows for people to have debates and theories and allegiances to different characters – to trust characters and hate other characters – but it doesn’t tell you who is good or bad or right or wrong. That’s the most exciting storytelling, in my book.”

Tatiana Maslany has a diverse range of roles throughout her career journey. Besides that, she has also accumulated a lot of honors and achievements due to her spectacular performance.
