PRESS: Do you have a preference between studio films and indies?
POSEY: No. It's all the same. It's not all the same, but it's just different. It's just different. I mean, I've come in for six weeks, six or seven weeks of shooting and they've been shooting since January. There are already dynamics of people. There are already little families and dynamics going on. Sets have been built. Characters have already been developed. So you have to acclimate yourself very quickly and feel at home very quickly.
PRESS: What surprised you the most in reading the script that you might not have expected in a movie like this?
POSEY: Like I said before it kept the background of what the 'Superman' movie was, but it just deepened it with more myth. Why is Superman important now? Why do we need Superman now? I met Christopher Reeve when he came to see a play that he had done on Broadway, 'The Fifth of July,' which was like the first gay kiss on Broadway. It was a scandal in the early '80's. He came to see the play a couple of years ago and he was just such an amazing man. What happened as an American in our country, for someone like that to die and the stem cell research and how he handled it with such grace was powerful. So I'm glad for that reason alone that it's coming out right now and is dedicated to him. It's intelligent. I mean, I'm not an action movie fan. I didn't see 'X-Men.' Although, my friend saw it and said it was great.
PRESS: Have you seen any of bryan's other films?
POSEY: Oh, yeah.
PRESS: What is it about Bryan that you enjoy and what has he asked you to do with kitty?
POSEY: I don't know. Some directors, a lot of directors, sometimes I feel like Kitty is Bryan or that Lex Luthor, there's a part of Bryan in that. I like to work from the director. So his humor is great. He's got a good sense of humor. But there was no, 'This is what I want from Kitty.' We started at wardrobe with an outline of what kind of woman she's going to be. We have Kitty in kind of a white dress, and well, I don't want to say anything that reveals too much, but she can be a lot of people. She's an actor in that way. So it's a lot of different layers. It's been interesting.
PRESS: ???
POSEY: No. That was my body double. I haven't seen it yet. What can you talk about here? There's stuff that you see that I think is going to be so real seeming and then you'll have Superman come in and say that Superman thing that's so charming and honest and truthful. It's neat to kind of watch Superman in the eyes of Lois and Clark. I like it.
PRESS: Were you at all worried about doing another film after doing 'Blade: Trinity' which I heard was crazy at times with actors choking directors and Hell's Angels on set!
POSEY: Where was I?
PRESS: I don't know how much you had to deal with that craziness on that film!
POSEY: It was kind of weird. You'd walk in and it's early in the morning and the first thing that you see is a bunch of guys going [Fighting Noises] and you're like, 'Oh, God. This is not fun.' But I had a good time on that. That was fun. It was interesting. Any time that you get like a big kind of vampire movie, a 'Superman' movie there's going to be weird stuff going on. I wasn't doing that much. Jessica Biel and Ryan Reynolds did a lot of the action.
PRESS: I just heard that it wasn't a pleasant experience at all?
POSEY: Why? What? That's their problem. I don't know. I loved David Goyer and all of those people.
PRESS: Did you like superheroes when you were a kid?
POSEY: I liked Isis. She was like a biology teacher by day. It was a kid's show and you could always see like the strings connecting her. It was really bad. She was like a hot biology teacher. There was that crow in the office and the sets were really bad. It was just the same set over and over again and you could see the wall turning.
PRESS: If they did an 'Isis' movie would you like to do that?
POSEY: I'm working on that right now. Why do you think that I'm here talking about it? It'd be a big comedy. And then there's (SP?) Shields and Yarnell. They're not superheroes, but I really liked them a lot.
PRESS: Have you enjoyed Australia?
POSEY: I traveled through Australia about six or seven years ago for about a month. I spent all day at the Botanical Gardens yesterday and I went back there today to see the Cockatoos and the magpies. It's just amazing. Australia is the same population as L.A. and it's a country surrounded by water [Laughs]. There are more birds here and animals and insects. There's like a billion insects that haven't even been named. There are spiders and snakes that can kill you. And the birds will come right up to you. They're not really scared. This is their planet. It's not like New York or America. You can really feel the nature here I think. I read that from '96 to now the population of people who've become Buddhist has doubled in Australia. I've been doing a lot of yoga.
PRESS: So you've enjoyed your time here?
POSEY: Oh, yeah totally. One of my best friends from San Francisco is here with me. He gets to walk around the city and he doesn't have license and he doesn't drive so he's a walker. So he goes on walkabout and tells me all the stories. We've also been watching a lot of Australian 'Big Brother.'
PRESS: Who is going to get kicked out?
POSEY: I don't know. I think that Beth is going to win.
PRESS: Do you have anything coming up?
POSEY: The next Chris Guest movie which is called 'For Your Consideration.' It's a low budget movie that's being shot in L.A. about the only Jewish family living in the south in the '40's.
PRESS: Will it be a lot of the same faces?
POSEY: Yeah. Chris is playing the director.
PRESS: Are you handed a lot of scripts with not as much dialogue for you to create that dialogue?
POSEY: They never write women's parts very well or complicated. So you do end up going, 'Can we do something more with this?' I think that this is an interesting time right now with these reality shows and people seeing this big budget superhero movies. I don't know where it's going to meet or how it's going to effect entertainment or DVD sales.
PRESS: Were they expecting the Frankenstein film to turn into a tv series?
POSEY: Yeah. I don't know. I just do the jobs and I see what happens. I don't attach myself to the success of something.
PRESS: Do you want to get into tv?
POSEY: I mean, again, I make a living just like everyone else. You take the jobs that pick you. I'm a freelancer.
