Natalie Dormer by James Macari for Fashion magazine, 2016

For me, it’s not necessarily interesting to play a strong, fearless woman. It’s interesting to play a woman who is terrified and then overcomes that fear. It’s about the journey. Courage is not the absence of fear, it’s overcoming it.
I’ve been busy enough playing four different roles in the last four years, and I don’t have energy to put out some perfect image of Natalie Dormer that’s not the real me anyway. Most of my closest pals have nothing to do with the industry. They watched me struggle financially. They know my sob stories and the roles I missed out on and the nights when I never thought I’d work again.

“Perfect is very boring, and if you happen to have a different look, that’s a celebration of human nature, I think. If we were all symmetrical and perfect, life would be very dull.”

“It’s an interesting dichotomy every actor struggles with: the professional and the personal. I complain about it all the time, but I get a kick out of it as well. I must. I wouldn’t be doing it otherwise, would I?” — Natalie Dormer for Nylon Guys
I think women should have style, but it should be undermined by a slight casualness. Like they haven’t tried that hard, because the minute you’re self-conscious about it, it doesn’t really work anymore. // Natalie Dormer for SELF Magazine (April 2015)
I suppose that I’m a bit of a tomboy, and I probably say things out loud that I shouldn’t. I’m quite a straightforward person.
