Rosemarie DeWitt

(When asked what the hardest part of working on "Standoff" is) Rosemarie: The hardest thing about it… because it's great, there's really no way to complain about it because it's a great job - is that it's hard to make it good. It's a new show. It really has to figure out what it wants to be. Everyone has to let that happen, but at the same time work really hard.

(On what it's like to have a starring role on a TV series.) Rosemarie: It's good. It's good to feel used up at the end of the day – like you're working hard. It's hard sometimes to wear all the different hats, because you're trying to keep on top of the writing and make sure that you feel like the writers are serving Emily. You're trying to flesh her out. You want her to be a three-dimensional character.

(On Ron Howard's reaction to her audition for "Cinderella Man") Rosemarie: After I read for him, I think he literally said, "Oh. You're good..." I think he was surprised. He thought I was a hair dresser and I was pretending I was an actor or something.
