Boy Kills World: Famke Janssen Reveals Grim Inspiration for New Movie

The X-Men star breaks down her process for getting into a really messed-up character.

Former Bond Girl and X-Man Famke Janssen told ComicBook.com that when she has to play a disturbed character, it has to come from a grim place. The actress, who spoke with us in support of her new movie Boy Kills World , said that she can never use existing characters as an inspiration for a performance, and instead has to dig into the emotions behind the character's motivation. That means, in the case of someone like Boy Kills World 's Hilda, going to a pretty dark place.

"I never use other characters from other movies as my inspiration, because then I worry that I'm imitating someone or something that's already been done before," Janssen told ComicBook.com."So I try to go into this deep well of hurt and childhood dysfunction, and all the voices that...mm!...and then I use it."
