Actress Amanda Seyfried wants to continue taking risker roles after filming "Lovelace" as the film made her feel like a real actor for the first time.
The 27-year-old, who plays real life 1970's sex icon Linda Lovelace in the movie, claims the controversial character taught her a lot about herself, reported Contactmusic.
"The biggest lesson is that I want to be playing real people. There is so much to learn about yourself, so much to read into, dive into. I kind of lost myself a little at one point which was fun, I felt like a real actor. I'm not afraid of darkness.
"This was the biggest emotional education I've ever received, I was embodying someone that had a life and was human, I learned a lot. She's a real person, we never got to do that before. It's important for any actor to jump into somebody else's skin," she said.
