If there was a Farscape movie or mini series would you reprise your role?Question from Sharon
Hi Sharon darling, thank you for saying such sweet things.
I would come back but I couldn't every day because the make-up is just too harmful for me to wear every day. I just can't cope - unfortunately Zhaan is humanly impossible. I could probably be able to handle being Zhaan for a couple of months, so maybe a film.
Hopefully there will be a film in the future at some stage. I feel very positive about this. Every time I break up from a boyfriend I like to think we're going to get back together, and every time something happens, something like a TV show that I love gets taken off air I like to be filled with positive thought.
I like to think that it's going to come back. Farscape's my home, Farscape's family. Zhaan is me, and I really miss her very much, more than I ever have any other character. This one I really owned. Shaving my hair and eyebrows threw me into another dimension because it was no longer just an actor learning lines and performing, suddenly it was me going into a religious discipline.
The only way I could remain sane with no eyebrows and no hair for three years was to see myself as going through some kind of Buddhist ritual so, I really threw myself into it more than most actors. So for all of those reasons it's difficult for me to say goodbye and just move on.
I'll jump at the chance to be Zhaan again. If another series starts up I won't be able to be Zhaan full time but I'll certainly give it a shot, if they want me.
