She told EW.com: ‘The reason why she drew me to the role was that she represented something I’ve never done, but I always wanted to do. 

‘I’ve always wanted to play someone with no emotion, who didn’t care about anything, who’s just murder, murder, murder.

‘All-business, never wavering. I’ve always wanted to learn martial arts, I always wanted to shoot all different all kinds of firearms, and I did exactly that.’
