When I'm writing a woman character, I don't think, 'What would a woman do?' I just think, 'What would this character do in this situation?'
So it is fair enough that you are paying me what I ask for, because it is my name you are using to sell the film. If the producer gives me a guarantee that he will sell the film at a lower price to the distributors, fair enough, then I will charge less!
I just felt like I had to create a life for myself where I was more independent.
