To move towards new forms of creation such as writing or photography? “Putting my acting career on hold, it was a way to give myself time to devote myself more to it. I’ve been doing photography since I was very young, writing has always accompanied me, and so has drawing.”explained the actress. And speaking of projects, there is one she is working on at the moment. “I’m currently developing this story into a screenplay! I’m working on it.

“I choose projects selfishly. I made instinctive choices. And it’s true that I speak in the media when I present a project, I don’t use my notoriety to debate on subjects for which I don’t have the impression of being of added value… “wanted to let know the one who gave the answer to Mathieu Kassovitz. And to conclude: “There are certainly artists whose competition has brought things, but for me it’s not a role that suits me. I have always been very discreetit’s never been a strategy, it’s my nature and I’m not sure that at my age I would be able to change it.”. That’s what it says!
