On Period Pieces:

During our exclusive interview in support of The Merchant of Venice, Collins explained the appeal of period pieces: "I love the fact that period pieces can give you so much more to get into the character. So it's not period pieces that I love. I mean, I also love history. I'm a big history buff. When you are hired to do a part that's in a different time period, you're basically given free time to learn and teach yourself about that time period. That’s probably what I enjoy."

And On TV:

Lynn Collins played a gorgeous - and sexually easy - waitress named Dawn on the first season of HBO's vampire series, True Blood.
