Maika Monroe Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Maika Monroe:

It goes without saying that it's important to vote.

I love James Brown, and as a baby, I was always dancing to James Brown.

Maika Monroe

I love horror movies. It's so fun being absolutely terrified. It's damn hard to shoot, though. I didn't realize how difficult it was to make a horror movie as an actor. Physically and mentally, phew.

Maika Monroe

I grew up really loving old-school horror such as 'Halloween' and 'The Birds.'

Maika Monroe

Stick up for what you believe in and never, ever feel that you can't say something or speak your mind. I think that would be the best advice. Be strong. Be confident. That's really all you need.

Maika Monroe

I have a weird thing with knives. I don't like knives very much. Like when my parents are cooking in the kitchen and using knives to chop vegetables, I can't be in the same room. For whatever reason, knives just terrify me.

Maika Monroe

Before acting took off, I was a professional kiteboarder training for the world circuit; with a sporting activity, you have to be determined, and it taught me to have a thick skin, which came in use after going to so many auditions and being told 'no.'

Maika Monroe

I grew up with horror. My dad loves movies, and he passed a lot of them on to me. There's something so fun about them.

Maika Monroe

I think 'The Shining' is one of the first horror movies I remember seeing.

Maika Monroe

I've never experienced complete terror, knock on wood, or running for my life or any of that.

Maika Monroe

I've cracked my head open before; I've had some great injuries. So I have to do it on the side now. I cracked my head open kiting before a competition in New Caledonia. The water was shallow, and I missed a trick and hit my head on a rock.

Maika Monroe

My grandma passed away from cancer, and actually, when I was 18, I had an experience with melanoma - it's in the family. I had that experience where everything comes into perspective. It's the weirdest thing, 'cause you're like, 'It will never happen to me,' and when it does, it's like, 'OK, wow.'

Maika Monroe

I'm working on a movie called 'Labor Day' with Kate Winslet while still balancing kite boarding. Being an actress and an athlete is a challenge, but I'm excited to see what happens.

Maika Monroe

I don't look at myself as a Scream Queen, and I don't plan on continuing on this genre route. If anything, I want to go very different places.

Maika Monroe

What I love about my job is challenging myself and finding weird, different roles.

Maika Monroe

My dad showed me loads of films when I was young, but I never thought I would be in movies. That didn't seem like a real job to me.

Maika Monroe

My dad taught me to kiteboard when I was 13, and around the same time, I happened to just fall into being an extra on a set and fell in love with acting and making movies.

Maika Monroe

Surprisingly, I am great at kiteboarding, but I'm not great at surfing.

Maika Monroe

Knowing that anything can happen at any time, I made sure the people that I love know that.

Maika Monroe

I'm an only child, and we're a close family.

Maika Monroe

I'd love, love, love to do a comedy. I can't imagine being on set and being happy and cheerful. That seems so foreign.

Maika Monroe

I like challenges. I think that's important.

Maika Monroe

There's a lot of comedy in 'The Guest,' so it was a bit more fun in a sense - it wasn't so heavy like 'It Follows.'

Maika Monroe

I used to be a professional kiteboarder. People were like, 'Oh, my God, are you scared of sharks? Are you scared of injuries?' You can't be scared. If you're scared, then you can't do it. You can't train to be the best.

Maika Monroe

It goes without saying that it's important to vote.

Maika Monroe

It's really cool to be able to do both. I get a chance to be in this film with these amazing actors, the coolest people ever, and I try to kiteboard as much in my free time as I can.

Maika Monroe

When you look at the roles I've done and the roles coming up, they're all strong. I guess I'm more drawn to that than that kind of submissive role females can be categorised as.

Maika Monroe

I would really love to play a superhero. That is definitely up there on my list. Captain Marvel especially. That would be so cool.

Maika Monroe

I wasn't thinking that I was two horrors back to back; I was thinking these were characters that I want to play.

Maika Monroe

When I'm filming, it's in the contract - 'No kiteboarding' - ha ha.

Maika Monroe

There are a lot of times where, filming 'It Follows,' I'm fighting against a guy dressed in a green suit for special effects, and I'm just like, 'No. There's no way this is going to be pulled off.'

Maika Monroe

SOLOSHOT is such a brilliant idea and an athlete's dream. It has given me the ability to film myself training without anyone's help - it's perfect because I can go to the beach, set up my SOLOSHOT, and not have to rely on anyone to stand there and film me from the beach for hours.

Maika Monroe

I remember reading 'The Guest' and thinking, 'This is going to be something!'

Maika Monroe

If I met Jack Nicholson, I would probably get a little flustered. Not going to lie. I've watched his movies since I was so young. Such a fan.

Maika Monroe

There's some freedom that you get with indie films that you don't get with the big-budget ones. There's just a different style. I hope I can switch back and forth for the rest of my career, but I've kind of grown up on indies, and there's nothing better than working with these directors so closely and and being such a huge part of the process.

Maika Monroe

My goal is to continue to act and still be a professional kiteboarder.

Maika Monroe

Horror movies can be - I don't wanna say not real, but so over-the-top: you can get scared 'cos things are loud and in-your-face, but these are real emotions that I'm using.
