[on her audition for Widows (2018)] I put myself on tape while I was in Australia in my friend’s garage, ’cause I am all about the glamour.

I think it’s only in hindsight that you understand what was a turning point. If you actually felt the penny drop, you should probably check yourself, like, “Whoa, you’re doing OK, but you’re not that great.” It’s an interesting schism between knowing quietly inside yourself that you’re worth being heard, but challenging yourself so you don’t plateau. I look back at certain moments that empowered me and it’s always about the people I worked with.
