Adelaide Kane Quotations

I am half Scottish. My father is an expat from Glasgow, and on my mother's side there's a bit of French, a bit of Scottish, a bit of Irish.

I don't really watch a lot of TV, to be honest. I'm more of a movie girl, or I Netflix stuff.

I love it when you like a character, and then she does something you don't like, and you hate her for a while - then you love her again. I'd like to see her have unlikable moments that the audience understands and sympathizes with.

Auditioning is extremely bizarre. Just being an actor is extremely bizarre, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

My main goal as an actor, with my craft or whatever poncy way you want to say it, is to always take the audience with me. To make them feel for me, or to make them hate me, I want a reaction. I want their emotions. The worst reaction someone can have is, "eh."

I want to touch people's lives, and bring them along with me.

The most important thing to me is my work, and reaching people through my work. It's so important to me. It's my passion.

Nobody wants to watch perfect people.

I had a moment a few years ago where I wasn't sure if I was acting for myself or because people expected it of me. A bit of a crisis of faith, I suppose. I did some soul-searching, took a break and decided I was going to live my life only for me.

I wouldn't give up my career for somebody. The most important thing to me is my work, and reaching people through my work. It's so important to me. It's my passion.
