“Over the years, I have been asked to play these sort of scary frenetic...” — Gary Oldman Quote

Over the years, I have been asked to play these sort of scary frenetic characters that express their emotions physically.

It's a shame about California, and particularly about L.A., where they've demolished so many landmarks. It's a bit of a disease there, where if anything is over 30 years old, they sort of knock it down and replace it. It's a strange town, it's this sprawling suburb, and then there's a city, the old town.

My big love was the Beatles. I was more into music.

I hadn't worked for a couple of years so I thought it would be nice to earn some money and pay the bills.

I want my weekends off and I want to put my kids to bed. Those are good reasons to want to be in 'Batman 2'.

This whole idea of editing, not one time I can tell you, not one time has a producer ever asked me to say something I did not want to say. I will also say this about 'Drag Race' producers: I will stand by the show and the people there because they have changed so many people's lives for the better, and I'm one of them.

Men are intimidated by me: I very rarely get asked out.

Even when 'Kaakha Kaakha' was released, there were people who gave it an average rating and said they couldn't figure out what was happening. Three days after its release, the producer called me and asked me to remove all of Jothika's scenes from the film. I told him; in that case, you can also remove my name from the director's slot.

Jean-Luc asked me to play a small part in 'Breathless,' the role of Belmondo's former girlfriend. It was just one scene. I asked him what I had to do and he said, 'You have to take your clothes off,' and I said no.
