Annabelle Wallis

My mother had a very open-minded philosophy about having children: that they should be free to develop in their own way. ”

I remember telling people I booked this job; they were like, 'What is it called?' I was like, 'Peaky Blinders,' and they were like, 'What?' It sounds ridiculous, but I like it because there's an instant intrigue about the name. ”

It's wonderful to return to 'Peaky Blinders.' We're all here for the right reasons - to work and do justice to what's written on the page. ”

I've always known I wanted to go into acting, but being a very proud teenager, I wasn't ready to admit it until I felt like it was going to be possible. ”

I like the idea that I come into a room, and you think you're dealing with one thing, but the truth is I'm very layered. ”

I love putting myself in sink-or-swim situations. You realize the human spirit is built to survive. ”

I love Stephen Fry. His tweets are witty, poignant, and intelligent. ”

I love 'Breaking Bad,' and the fact that my friend Aaron Paul is in it makes it all the more special to watch. ”

I need to put myself out in the world and be brave and be uncomfortable. When I do, it means I can enjoy life so much more. ”

I love comedy, and I always wanted to go that way, but I felt so passionate about drama. ”
