Maika Monroe Quotations

I've seen so many scripts, and I want to do everything. Like with kiteboarding, you have to be fearless. I'm not scared.

My goal is to continue to act and still be a professional kiteboarder.

When I was living in the Dominican Republic, the local kids became a part of my family.

I'm working on a movie called 'Labor Day' with Kate Winslet while still balancing kite boarding. Being an actress and an athlete is a challenge, but I'm excited to see what happens.

Acting is such a crazy industry, but kite boarding keeps me grounded.

I started kite boarding when I was 13. My dad was a kite boarder, and I begged him to teach me until he finally agreed. He made me wait because it can be dangerous.

I like to think that I've grown as an actor and things have changed, and I think so.

You learn so much on set; I don't know if you learn as much anywhere else as you do when you're on set, working.

I want to work hard, and when good roles come along I don't want to pass them up.

I grew up in the indie world and that's what I'm used to, but there's something really incredible about having money behind a film and having the time to do as many takes as you want.
