“We are actors.
We are supposed to act.
That, for me, is the biggest step forward.”
Since taking home the trophy, the significance of that moment has only grown for her.
“I think in the past, when there was so few roles, it was so competitive.
And I can understand why.
But now we have to change the mindset.
If I’m successful, you’re gonna be successful.
And together we can make big success out of this and create more roles.”
