The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Jessica Henwick
- When I’m traveling, I like extremes. It’s nice for me to go to Canada in the mountains where it’s snowing or to Cambodia where it’s stifling.
- I went snorkeling between tectonic plates in Iceland’s Silfra fissure in the winter. You have to wear thermal layers and a wet suit and what’s called a ‘teddy-bear suit’ so you don’t die of hypothermia. My lips still went blue. That was an experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life – so beautiful and so quiet.
- In Singapore, I’d spend the majority of my time at hawker centres because the food there is incredible.
- I was always going back and forth between Singapore and the U.K.
- When I came on to ‘Iron Fist,’ it was really Colleen Wing that sold it for me. I thought it was a good opportunity to see a really strong female Asian American.
- I’ve always made a point to play roles that aren’t specified by their ethnicity.
- I have a T-shirt that says Game of Stones, which has the Flintstones dressed as ‘Game of Thrones’ characters on it.
- What I’m known for – ‘Game of Thrones,’ ‘Star Wars’ – they film in England, but they’re American productions. Because American productions are willing to see Asian actors.
- I don’t want to perpetuate a stereotype. I don’t want to take Asian representation backwards two steps. I don’t want to be part of the problem.
- One stereotype I get a lot as an Asian actress is that you’re playing the model minority – that Asians are the best, that they’re perfect and positively moral all the time.
