Making a pretty picture, an image, is a completely different thing from acting to camera.
- End
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As a means to an end, modelling was good, but I had to distance myself from it when I started working as an actress, because even though I wasn't high-profile, I found in my first write-ups that I'd be referred to as 'model Gemma Chan.'

I'm quite a rational person. I'm not very superstitious, but I really do enjoy horror as a genre.

Even though I don't necessarily believe in everything that's supernatural, I like being scared and I like things that are suspenseful.
- Homework
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was given a lot of homework: I had to practise ironing as a synth, practise washing up as a synth, cooking a meal as a synth. It's definitely the most prep I've had to do for a role.
- Growing Up

Growing up, I never saw any Asian faces on TV, so it didn't feel like a viable option.

I've been fortunate in my career, but, yes, there have been many times when I have been told my audition has been cancelled because they're only going to see white people.
- Physical

All of us have a lot of physical tics that we don't realize that we're doing subconsciously.
- Cognitive
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I visited a Child Friendly Space where children take part in structured play and development activities in a safe environment. These are designed to develop their cognitive ability as well as address their psychosocial needs. As I watched them sing songs and take part in games, it struck me that these kids could be anywhere in the world.
- Children

Save the Children is also working to improve accommodation for refugee families living outside settlements. I met a family which had been living in a substandard building without windows, doors or a toilet.

It's really rare in TV not to think, 'Well, I've seen a version of this before.'
- Phone
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
AI - not so some kind of far-off thing. It's part of our lives now, from your phone to everything you do. It makes our lives easier in a lot of ways.

When you think of things like medicine, people who have lost limbs now have a chance to have a limb replaced that is connected to the brain that they can actually control with their mind. That's amazing.

I hate the idea that people should listen to what actors have to say on certain issues more than anyone else. Actors have no more right to be heard than anyone.
- Getting
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My parents thought they were getting an accountant and a lawyer. Instead, they ended up with a PR and an actress.
- Bond

I would have done it happily, but to be a Bond girl isn't everything I aim for as an actress.
- East Asian
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
From my experience, I would say no: actors of East Asian descent don't get the opportunities white actors do. I know that's inherently a problem in a country that produces a lot of period drama, but I have to fight so hard to get parts that don't have something to do with China.
- Face
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've heard about productions where it still happens: yellow face, taping up the eyes. It's hard to talk about it in a constructive way.
- Drink
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Italy - I love the late-night culture, hanging around the square at midnight with everyone, catching up and having a drink.
- Good
